EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the colossal marble head of a youth, a relic of ancient Greek art hailing from Pergamon in Asia Minor, now displayed at The Antikensammlung Berlin (Berlin Antiquities Collection). Dating back to the 2nd century BC, this magnificent sculpture once adorned the top terrace of the Pergamon Gym. The intricately carved features of the youth's face reveal the masterful craftsmanship of the Hellenistic period. Pergamon, located in modern-day Turkey, was a prominent cultural center during the Hellenistic age, renowned for its impressive architecture and extensive library. The city's wealth and influence allowed for the creation of grand works of art, such as this colossal head. Despite the passage of time and the ravages of history, the head remains an enduring symbol of the artistic achievements of the ancient Greeks. The broken edges of the marble suggest that the statue may have been damaged during transportation or conflict, yet the youth's serene expression remains undeterred. This evocative artwork continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and the mystery of its origins.
