EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless figure of Sophocles, a renowned Greek playwright from ancient civilization. With a stoic expression on his face, this engraved image beautifully captures the essence of this influential poet and tragedian. Set against a pristine white background, the marble bust exudes an air of antiquity and sophistication. Sophocles is celebrated for his seven surviving plays, which are revered for their intricate plots, rich characterizations, and profound exploration of the relationship between mortals and divine order. Among his notable works are "Antigone" and "Oedipus Rex" also known as "Oedipus Tyrannus". This 19th-century illustration pays homage to Sophocles' contributions to literature and Greek culture. The photograph portrays one senior man only, emphasizing the wisdom that comes with age. The craftsmanship evident in this art product further enhances its allure as it immortalizes Sophocles' legacy through time. As we gaze upon this stone object delicately captured by Nastasic's lens, we are transported back to ancient Greece where poetry flourished alongside adventure. With its vertical composition and horizontal lines drawing attention to every detail of the sculpture's features, this artwork evokes a sense of awe-inspiring beauty.
