EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Head of Meleager, a remarkable sculpture dating back to the 2nd century. Originally inspired by a Greek original from the mid-4th century BC, this Roman rendition depicts Meleager, a renowned hero in Greek mythology. Known for his exceptional bravery and strength, he is famously remembered for slaying the formidable Calydonian Boar alongside Atalanta, an accomplished female hunter. Displayed in The Hermitage collection in St Petersburg, Russia, this stone masterpiece exemplifies the artistry and skill of ancient Rome. The intricate details carved into the marble bring Meleager's face to life - his intense gaze and flowing hair capturing both power and grace. As one of the Argonauts who embarked on a perilous journey with Jason to retrieve the Golden Fleece, Meleager symbolizes heroic valor and adventure. This portrait serves as a testament to ancient Greece's rich mythology and its enduring influence on Western culture. The vibrant colors within this photograph accentuate every contour of Meleager's visage while highlighting Italy's historical significance as an artistic hub during ancient times. With its fusion of Greek origins and Roman craftsmanship, this head bust represents not only an extraordinary work of art but also embodies centuries-old tales that continue to captivate our imaginations today.
