EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of the iconic bronze sculpture "Heracles at rest" by Lysippos, dating back to the 4th century BC. The sculpture is housed in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale d'Abruzzo, located in Villa Frigerj, Chieti, Abruzzo, Italy. The image captures the essence of Greek art and mythology as it portrays Heracles (also known as Hercules) in a moment of repose. The intricate carving skillfully brings out the human form and muscular physique of this mythological character. With his body relaxed yet powerful, Heracles exudes an aura of strength and tranquility simultaneously. Attributed to Lysippos, one of Greece's most renowned sculptors from Sicyone during the 4th century BC, this masterpiece was discovered at the Shrine of Ercole Curino in Sulmona. Its presence now graces the halls of Museo Nazionale Archeologico in Chieti. The photograph by Luisa Ricciarini beautifully captures every intricate detail and texture present on this ancient bronze sculpture. Through her lens, we are transported back to antiquity where we can appreciate both the artistic mastery behind this work and its historical significance. This print serves as a testament to our fascination with ancient civilizations and their enduring legacy through art. It invites us to delve into Greek mythology while marveling at the craftsmanship that has stood the test of time.
