EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable statue that combines the delicate features of Cupid with the mighty physique of Hercules. A Roman copy of an ancient Greek original, this masterpiece is proudly exhibited at the renowned Archaeological Museum in Turin. Dating back to around 1890, this photograph captures the essence and beauty of this extraordinary artwork from the II-I century BC. The statue portrays a male figure, entirely nude, symbolizing both divinity and mythology. Its muscular body exudes strength and power while its serene facial expression hints at its connection to love and desire. The intricate details are truly mesmerizing - from the club held firmly in one hand, representing Hercules' instrument for hunting and combat, to the animal skin draped over his arm as a testament to his heroic feats. The wings attached to his back further emphasize his divine nature as Eros or Cupid. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this sculpture holds deeper significance within Greco-Roman culture. It explores various physiological and psychological aspects associated with human desires and emotions. Through its portrayal of a hybrid figure merging two distinct mythological characters, it invites contemplation on themes such as love's potential for strength or vulnerability. As we admire this piece through Brogi's lens, we are transported back in time to an era when art was not only appreciated but also served important functions within society – offering treatments for both body and soul. In capturing this image with precision and clarity, Alinari has allowed us to appreciate not just the artistic mastery behind it but also glimpse into Europe's ancient civilization where such works were celebrated as expressions of human creativity across generations.
