EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite sculpture "The Graces and Cupid" by Bertel Thorvaldsen. Created between 1820-22, this masterpiece is crafted from Carrara marble and is housed in the renowned Thorvaldsens Museum in Copenhagen, Denmark. In this particular detail of the artwork, we are drawn into an intimate embrace between The Graces and Cupid. Their faces and gazes reveal a depth of emotion that captivates the viewer's attention. The artist skillfully captures their expressions, allowing us to witness tenderness, sensuality, and grace all at once. The nudity portrayed in this neoclassical piece adds to its allure as it celebrates the beauty of the female figure. It pays homage to Greek mythology with references to Olympus and divinity. The goddess-like figures exude elegance while Cupid symbolizes love itself. Thorvaldsen's mastery over marble sculpting is evident through his intricate detailing and lifelike forms. Each curve and contour tells a story of passion, desire, and timeless beauty. As we gaze upon this remarkable work of art captured by Ghigo Roli's lens, we are transported back to the 19th century where neoclassicism reigned supreme. This photograph invites us to appreciate not only its aesthetic qualities but also its historical significance as it immortalizes Thorvaldsen's genius for generations to come.
