EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned Bronze of Riace, also known as statue A, a masterpiece from ancient Greece. Created in 460 BC, this sculpture is an exquisite representation of either a warrior or an athlete. The muscular and athletic physique depicted in this artwork reflects the idealized human form celebrated by Greek culture during the 5th century BC. Currently housed at the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Reggio Calabria, Italy, this bronze statue stands tall at approximately 2.05 meters. Its remarkable craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident from every angle - whether it's admiring the intricate carving on its back or marveling at its lifelike portrait. The photographer, Luisa Ricciarini, has beautifully captured this timeless piece of art with her lens. Through her skillful composition and lighting techniques, she brings out the essence of both strength and vulnerability embodied by this ancient figure. As we gaze upon this photograph print today, we can't help but be transported back to a time when Greek civilization flourished. It serves as a reminder of our shared human history and our enduring fascination with beauty and physical prowess.
