EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning bronze bust, dated to the 4th century BCE, is a captivating example of ancient Greek art housed in the National Archaeological Museum of Athens. The young man depicted in the sculpture is identified as Perseus, the legendary hero famous for beheading the Gorgon Medusa and rescuing Andromeda. However, recent scholarly interpretations suggest that this statue might actually represent Paris, another significant figure from Greek mythology. Paris was the prince of Troy who infamously chose Aphrodite as the most beautiful goddess, leading to the Trojan War. The intricate details of the bust, attributed to the renowned sculptor Euphranor of Corinth around 340-330 BC, reveal the exceptional craftsmanship of the ancient Greeks. The youthful face, with its piercing gaze and defined features, exudes an air of confidence and charm. The statue's most striking element is the severed head of Medusa or, in the case of Paris, the apple of discord, clutched in his left hand. This symbolizes the power and consequences of Paris's fateful decision. The bronze bust stands as a testament to the artistic achievements of ancient Greece and the enduring influence of its mythology. Its presence in the National Archaeological Museum of Athens is a reminder of Greece's rich history and cultural heritage, inviting us to explore the captivating stories and figures of its ancient past.
