EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the powerful painting "Laocoon - Minerva supporting the Greeks sends the snakes from the sea to attack Laocoon who warns the inhabitants of the city of Trojan against the horse, Snakes throw at his two sons and move them" by Domenikos Theotokopoulos, also known as El Greco. Created in the 17th century, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 1.37 X 1.72m and is housed in Washington's National Gallery Of Art. The painting depicts a dramatic scene from Greek mythology where Laocoon, a Trojan priest, tries to warn his fellow citizens about the hidden danger within their city walls—the infamous Trojan Horse. As punishment for his actions against Greece, Minerva sends serpents from the sea to attack Laocoon and his two sons. In this intense moment frozen in time by El Greco's brushstrokes, we witness both fear and courage as Laocoon valiantly fights off these monstrous creatures while desperately trying to save his children. With its vibrant colors and dynamic composition, this artwork captures not only an ancient tale but also human emotions that transcend time. It serves as a reminder of our constant struggle between good and evil forces that shape our lives. Thanks to Fine Art Finder's high-quality print reproduction technique captured by Photo Josse, art enthusiasts can now bring home a piece of history with this stunning depiction of "Laocoon. "
