EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time from the 1st century AD - a young boy strangling a goose. The Roman sculpture, believed to be a copy of a Greek original, is on display at the Vatican Museums and Galleries in Vatican City.
The intricate details of the marble statue bring to life the intensity of the scene as the boy's hands are wrapped around the neck of the struggling goose. The expression on his face is one of determination and perhaps mischief, adding an element of mystery to this ancient artwork.
As we gaze upon this piece, we are transported back to ancient times, where everyday activities were immortalized in stone for generations to come. The symbolism behind this image may be open to interpretation - is it a representation of innocence lost or simply a playful interaction between child and animal?
Regardless of its deeper meaning, there is no denying the artistry and craftsmanship that went into creating such a lifelike sculpture. It serves as a reminder of our shared human experience across centuries and continents, connecting us with our past in ways that words alone cannot express.
