Delving deeper into European sculpture art from the 19th century, wood engravings published in 1897 offer intricate glimpses into this period's creative prowess. These masterpieces capture both mythological scenes like Petronius's Satyricon or domestic aspects such as Lararium shrines featuring Lares house gods found in Herculaneum. The wax plaque depicting Euterpe transports us back to ancient Greece where music played an integral role in society. It serves as a reminder of how melodies could evoke emotions and inspire creativity even centuries ago.
