EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless beauty of the sculpture "Eros" believed to be from the 2nd century AD. Created by the renowned artist Lysippos, this masterpiece can be found in the Museo Nazionale Romano in Rome, Italy. The sculpture depicts Eros, a mythological figure known as Cupid in Roman mythology. With its intricate details and flawless craftsmanship, this artwork exemplifies the artistic brilliance of ancient Greece and Rome. The delicate hairstyle adorning Eros' head adds an element of elegance to his youthful features. In Greek mythology, Eros is considered a god and represents love and desire. As a child-like deity with wings on his back, he symbolizes both innocence and mischief. This sculpture captures his essence perfectly, showcasing his divine presence through its exquisite form. The nudity portrayed in this artwork reflects the aesthetic preferences of ancient Greece and Rome where nakedness was often celebrated as a symbol of beauty and purity. It serves as a reminder of how these civilizations embraced their own bodies without shame or judgment. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness the artistic genius that flourished during antiquity. Through Lysippos' skillful hands, Eros comes alive once again for us to admire and appreciate centuries later.
