Henri Regnault (1843-1871) “Automedon with the Horses of Achilles” (1868) Oil on canvas Located in the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, Boston, Massatchuestts, United States

In Greek mythology, Automedon was Achilles’ charioteer. In Homer’s Iliad, he rides into battle once Patroclus dons Achilles’s armor, commanding Achilles’ horses Balius and Xanthos. After Patroclus dies, Automedon is driven to the rear of the battle, where he tries to console the bereaved horses. Zeus intervenes, and Automedon resumes driving the chariot, but can not aid the Achaeans until Alcimedon agrees to be his driver. He repels an attempt on his life by Hector, Aeneas, Chromios, and Aretos, killing Aretos and taking his armor in the process.
