Created between 1584-1585, this masterpiece can be found in the courtyard of Palazzo Bianco (Musei di Strada Nuova) in Genoa, Italy. The sculpture depicts Janus, a mythological character from ancient Roman mythology. Known as the god of beginnings and transitions, Janus is often depicted with two faces looking in opposite directions. This particular artwork beautifully captures the intricate details of the carving and highlights Franqueville's exceptional talent. The use of white marble adds to the timeless elegance of this piece, reflecting its connection to antique Rome and the grandeur of the Roman Empire.

The contrast between light and shadow enhances our perception of depth and texture within the image. As we admire this remarkable work of art through Luisa Ricciarini's lens, we are transported back in time to an era where mythological characters were revered for their symbolic significance. This print serves as a testament to human creativity throughout centuries while reminding us that beauty truly transcends time.
