EDITORS COMMENTS
This bronze sculpture, titled "The head of Cassandra" transports us back to ancient Greece and the legendary tales of the Trojan War. Created by Max Klinger in 1895, this exquisite piece stands at a height of 59 cm and is now part of a private collection. Cassandra, known for her prophetic abilities, was a tragic figure from Greek mythology. Her striking features are beautifully captured in this print by Bridgeman Images. The artist has meticulously crafted every detail, from her intricate Grecian hairstyle to the intensity in her eyes. As we gaze upon this artwork, we cannot help but be drawn into Cassandra's world - a world filled with turmoil and tragedy. She was cursed with the gift of foresight but condemned never to be believed. This sculpture captures both her beauty and anguish as she grapples with the weight of knowledge that no one will heed. Klinger's portrayal reminds us of Homer's epic poems where Cassandra's warnings went unheeded due to human hubris. It serves as a poignant reminder that even those blessed with extraordinary insight can be silenced by ignorance or arrogance. "The head of Cassandra" is not just an artistic masterpiece; it is also a symbol of timeless wisdom and cautionary tales from antiquity. This print allows us to bring home a piece of classical history while contemplating the consequences that come with disregarding truth-tellers like Cassandra herself.
