EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Head of Lycaean Apollo, a remarkable piece of art carved from Parian marble. Dating back to the 4th century BC, this Roman copy is believed to be based on an original Greek sculpture attributed to Euphraror. The Museo Barracco in Rome, Italy proudly houses this fragmentary masterpiece. The image captures the essence of ancient Greece and its rich mythology. Lycaean Apollo, known as the god of light and music, is depicted here with youthful features and a serene expression. The intricate details carved into the marble bring forth a sense of classical beauty that has captivated viewers for centuries. As we gaze upon this magnificent sculpture, we are transported back in time to an era where gods and goddesses were revered by ancient Greeks. This head serves as a reminder of their belief in divine beings who possessed extraordinary powers. Despite being just a fragment, it exudes an aura of strength and divinity that transcends time itself. Its presence evokes awe and wonderment at the skillful craftsmanship exhibited by ancient sculptors. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this momentous artwork through Stefano Baldini's lens. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only the artistic mastery behind it but also offers us a glimpse into antiquity – reminding us how deeply intertwined art and mythology were in ancient Greece.
