EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned Capitoline Wolf, a sculpture of Etruscan origin dating back to 500 BC. The bronze masterpiece, measuring an impressive 83x126 cm, is housed in the Musei Capitolini in Rome, Italy. This iconic artwork holds significant historical and mythological importance. The sculpture depicts a she-wolf nurturing two infants, Romulus and Remus. According to ancient Roman mythology, these twins were abandoned at birth but miraculously saved by a compassionate wolf who nursed them until they were discovered by a shepherd. Eventually, Romulus went on to found the city of Rome. Originally created during the 6th century BC by Etruscan artists, this extraordinary piece underwent modifications during the Renaissance period when sculptors added detailed figures of Romulus and Remus. Despite its age and various alterations over time, the Capitoline Wolf remains an enduring symbol of maternal love and protection. Luisa Ricciarini's expertly captured image allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of this ancient artwork. From the lifelike carving of each figure to the dynamic composition that exudes both strength and tenderness - it is truly a testament to human creativity throughout history. Whether you are fascinated by archaeology or simply drawn to powerful imagery from Greek mythology, this print will undoubtedly make for an intriguing addition to any art collection or display space.
