EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the ancient world of Greece, where a stunning bronze statue stands proudly. The artwork belongs to the Polycletean school, renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail. In this particular piece, we see a depiction of youth captured with remarkable precision. The artist skillfully portrays every aspect of the male figure's physique, showcasing the human body in all its glory. From the intricate lines etched into his hand and fingers to the delicate curves of his feet and toes, no detail is overlooked. The statue's hair cascades effortlessly down his head, framing an exquisitely chiseled face that reveals both physiological and psychological aspects. His eyes gaze thoughtfully ahead while his mouth forms a subtle yet enigmatic smile upon his lips. As we admire this masterpiece from centuries past, it becomes evident that Greek art has always been synonymous with elegance and sophistication. This sculpture serves as a testament to their deep appreciation for beauty in its purest form. Now housed within Athens' National Archaeological Museum, this artifact holds immense historical significance. It offers us a glimpse into an ancient civilization that laid the foundation for Western culture as we know it today. Thanks to Alinari Fratelli's expert photography skills during 1920-1930 ca. , we are able to marvel at this extraordinary work of art from afar. Let us cherish these moments captured through time as they remind us of our shared human history and inspire awe for those who came before us.
