EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the back view of the head of the statue of Apollo from Antium, a remarkable artifact preserved in the National Museum of Rome, Palazzo Massimo alle Terme. The photograph, taken around 1940, captures every intricate detail of this ancient masterpiece. The statue's hairdo and hairstyle are meticulously carved, reflecting the fashion and clothing trends prevalent during its creation in the first century AD. This male figure stands nude, emphasizing his perfectly sculpted physique. The viewer is drawn to his strong buttocks and muscular legs that exude power and grace. Apollo, a divinity in Greek mythology associated with music, poetry, healing arts, and archery among other attributes is depicted here during the First Imperial Period of Roman art. This artwork represents an important era in European history when Greco-Roman influences were at their peak. Anderson's skillful photography allows us to appreciate not only the physical beauty but also the historical significance behind this piece. It serves as a window into an ancient civilization that continues to captivate our imagination today. As we gaze upon this image captured by Anderson from Alinari Studios without any commercial intent or mention thereof; we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one of Rome's most treasured artifacts housed within its prestigious National Museum.
