EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing sculpture titled "Winged Gorgon" created by Rubaldo Merello between 1915-18. Standing at a height of 36x8x8 cm, this masterpiece is part of a private collection owned by Luisa Ricciarini. The Winged Gorgon portrays a powerful female figure from Greek classical mythology. With her head beheaded and decapitated, she embodies both beauty and terror simultaneously. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this mythical monster, known for turning anyone who gazes into her eyes to stone. In this three-quarter length depiction, the Winged Gorgon brandishes her outstretched arms aloft, showcasing her dominance over mortals. Carved meticulously in stone, she represents the ancient myths that were once central to pagan religions and polytheistic beliefs. The photograph highlights the intricate details of this sculpture's form while emphasizing its nudity. The semi-nude portrayal adds an element of vulnerability to the otherwise fearsome creature. Luisa Ricciarini's expert photography allows viewers to appreciate every curve and contour of this remarkable artwork. As we gaze upon it, we are transported back in time to an era where mythological tales held great significance in shaping religious practices and cultural traditions.
