EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a bronze figure of the Ancient Greek poet Arion, created by the renowned Italian Renaissance sculptor Andrea Riccio in the late 15th or early 16th century. The engraving, executed by the French School in the 19th century, beautifully captures this historical masterpiece. Arion, a celebrated poet and musician from ancient Greece, is depicted here with great attention to detail. He holds a musical instrument known as a lyre, symbolizing his profound connection to music and poetry. This exquisite statuette stands as a testament to Riccio's exceptional craftsmanship and artistic vision. The image originates from L'Art Ancien à l'Exposition de 1878 (A Quantin, Paris, 1879), an illustrated publication that showcased various artworks exhibited during the Exposition Universelle of 1878. It offers us a glimpse into both ancient Greek culture and Renaissance artistry. The combination of Arion's poetic aura and Riccio's skillful execution transports viewers back in time to appreciate the beauty and significance of this piece. With its rich history and cultural importance, this bronze figure serves as an enduring reminder of Italy's artistic legacy within Europe.
