EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning copperplate engraving captures the exquisite beauty of the Statue of Arpocrate, also known as Harpocrates, the Greek god of silence. Found in Hadrian's Villa at Tivoli, this ancient sculpture depicts Arpocrate holding a horn and wearing a delicate lotus flower on his head.
The intricate details of this artwork are brought to life by Giacomo Bossi's skilled engraving technique, which faithfully reproduces an illustration by A. Tofanelli from Pietro Paolo Montagnani-Mirabilii's Il Museo Capitolino (The Capitoline Museum) in Rome from 1820.
Arpocrate is a figure shrouded in mystery and symbolism, embodying the concept of silence and secrecy in Greek mythology. The presence of the lotus flower on his head adds an element of purity and divine grace to his image.
As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to the classical world of ancient Greece and Rome, where gods and goddesses held sway over mortal affairs. The serene expression on Arpocrate's face invites us to contemplate the power of silence and introspection in our own lives.
This artwork serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of classical civilization and its influence on art and culture throughout history.
