EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic "Statue of Paris" in all its glory, housed within the prestigious Vatican Museums in Vatican City. The statue, dating back to ancient Roman times (1st century BC - 4th century AD), stands as a testament to Europe's rich and vibrant ancient civilization. The photograph itself was taken around 1890, offering us a glimpse into the past and allowing us to appreciate both the artwork and the skillful craftsmanship that went into creating this masterpiece. The attention to detail is remarkable; every contour of Paris' figure is expertly carved, showcasing his muscular physique and noble countenance. In this image, we see Paris depicted wearing traditional Greco-Roman attire – a flowing mantle cloak drapes over his shoulders while he dons an intricately designed headdress. His pose exudes confidence and strength as he holds an apple in his hand, symbolizing one of mythology's most iconic tales: the Judgement of Paris. Beyond its artistic significance, this photograph also offers insight into fashion trends prevalent during that era. It showcases not only the intricate clothing worn by individuals but also their choice of footwear and accessories. Anderson's masterful composition brings together elements from different realms – art history, mythology, fashion – inviting viewers on a journey through time. As we gaze upon this striking image today, it serves as a reminder of our shared human heritage and the enduring beauty found within ancient civilizations.
