EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the likeness of Epicurus, a renowned ancient Greek philosopher and the founder of Epicureanism. The image is based on a work by W. M. Craig from the 3rd century Roman bust found in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Naples, Italy. This particular bust is believed to be a copy of an original Greek sculpture. Epicurus lived during 341-270 BC and his philosophical teachings have had a lasting impact on Western thought. He established the school of philosophy known as Epicureanism, which emphasized pleasure as the ultimate goal in life but not at the expense of one's well-being or moral values. In this portrait, we see Epicurus portrayed with great detail and precision. His expression exudes wisdom and contemplation, capturing his intellectual depth and profound insights into human existence. The historical significance of this image cannot be overstated. It serves as a powerful reminder of our connection to ancient Greece and its rich philosophical heritage. As we gaze upon this illustration, we are transported back in time to an era when thinkers like Epicurus shaped our understanding of life's purpose and meaning. This archival photograph by Ken Welsh offers us a glimpse into history while also serving as an homage to one of humanity's greatest minds. It invites us to reflect on our own beliefs and values while appreciating the enduring legacy left behind by philosophers like Epicurus.
