EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned sculpture of Apollo Sauroctone, also known as Apollo the lizard-slayer. Created by the esteemed artist Praxiteles, this marble replica pays homage to Apollos' triumph over the Python in a lighthearted manner. The statue stands tall and proud, depicting a male figure leaning against a tree stump while holding a lizard in his hand. The artistic mastery is evident in every detail of this piece. The naked man's muscular physique is flawlessly sculpted, emphasizing strength and power. The coloration adds depth to the sculpture, bringing it to life with subtle shades that enhance its realism. Apollo, revered as a deity and god in ancient Greek religion, is represented here with great reverence. This artifact from the 4th century BC serves as both an object of religious significance and an exquisite work of art. Captured by photographer CM Dixon for Keystone Archives, this image preserves not only the beauty but also the historical value of Praxiteles' creation. It allows us to appreciate this remarkable artwork even centuries after its original conception. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are reminded of Apollo's divine prowess and his victory over formidable creatures like the Python. It serves as a testament to human creativity and our eternal fascination with mythology and religion.
