EDITORS COMMENTS
This bust portrays Sophocles (495-406 BC), the esteemed Greek playwright and tragedian whose works continue to captivate audiences around the world. Sophocles is considered one of the three great tragedians of classical Greece, alongside Aeschylus and Euripides. He wrote an impressive 120 plays during his prolific career, but only seven have survived in their entirety. The image showcases a thoughtful and introspective Sophocles, with a serious expression that speaks to the depth and complexity of his works. Dated to the 5th century BC, this carved sulpture or carving is a testament to the enduring legacy of the ancient Greek civilization and its artistic achievements. Sophocles' most famous tragedies include the haunting tales of Oedipus and Antigone. In Oedipus Rex, the tragic hero Oedipus unwittingly fulfills a prophecy that foretells his own downfall, leading to a harrowing revelation of his true identity. Antigone, on the other hand, explores the themes of duty, family, and the conflict between individual morality and the law. This evocative bust serves as a reminder of the profound impact that Sophocles and the ancient Greeks have had on the world of literature and theater. It invites us to delve into the rich tapestry of Greek mythology and the timeless stories that continue to resonate with us today.
