"Aeneas fleeing burning Troy with Anchises and Ascanius" is a 16th-century oil painting by Flemish artist Pieter Schoubroeck. The artwork vividly depicts the legendary escape of the Trojan hero Aeneas, carrying his aged father Anchises on his back, and leading his son Ascanius from the burning city of Troy, an event narrated in Virgil's epic poem, the Aeneid. This painting is a fine example of Northern Mannerism, showcasing Schoubroeck's skill in rendering dramatic narratives and his ability to infuse his work with emotional intensity.

The painting illustrates a pivotal moment in classical mythology and Roman foundational legend, capturing the chaos and despair of the fall of Troy, juxtaposed with the determination and piety of Aeneas, who was destined to become the progenitor of the Roman people. Schoubroeck's composition is notable for its dynamic figures, the interplay of light and shadow, and the meticulous attention to the details of the Trojan architecture engulfed in flames.

Pieter Schoubroeck, active in the late 16th and early 17th centuries, was known for his landscape and history paintings. While his works are less well-known than those of his contemporaries, they offer valuable insights into the artistic trends and cultural narratives of the period. "Aeneas fleeing burning Troy with Anchises and Ascanius" stands as a testament to Schoubroeck's artistic legacy and the enduring appeal of classical subjects in European art. The painting is an important piece for scholars studying the reception of classical mythology in Renaissance art and the transmission of these stories through visual media.
