The classical Greek influence is palpable as every curve and line reflects an era known for its artistic brilliance. The use of marble adds an ethereal quality to the print, enhancing its timeless appeal. This photograph serves as a testament to Phidias' mastery and his ability to immortalize divine beings through his sculptures.
