EDITORS COMMENTS
In this exquisite bronze sculpture, French School's 'The Education of Achilles by Chiron the Centaur' (19th century) masterfully captures a pivotal moment in Greek mythology. The legendary hero Achilles, future warrior of the Trojan War, sits cross-legged on a rocky outcropping as his wise and benevolent tutor, Chiron the Centaur, instructs him in the ways of music and combat. With one hand, Chiron holds a lyre, symbolizing the harmonious balance between art and war that Achilles will come to embody. Meanwhile, with his other hand he grasps an arrow-tipped bow, emphasizing the importance of skill and discipline in battle.
As Achilles listens intently to his centaur mentor's words of wisdom, we are reminded of Homer's epic poem 'The Iliad', which immortalized this iconic figure. This stunning sculpture not only showcases French School's technical skill but also offers a poignant glimpse into the formative years of one of ancient Greece's most legendary heroes.
