EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the majestic halls of the Capitoline Museum in Rome. Standing proudly amidst a sea of ancient artifacts, we are drawn to the magnificent Statue of Apollo, preserved with great care for centuries. The statue itself is a testament to the grandeur and artistry of Roman civilization during its Imperial Period. With its intricate details and flawless craftsmanship, it embodies the essence of Roman Art. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we cannot help but marvel at how Europe's ancient civilizations have left an indelible mark on our world. Apollo, depicted here in all his divine glory, captivates us with his striking presence. His perfectly sculpted nude body exudes strength and grace while his fanciful hairstyle adds an air of mystique. In one hand he holds a Greek cithare, an instrument that symbolizes music and creativity throughout history. Surrounded by reptiles and animals intertwined around him like guardians from another realm, Apollo stands as a powerful representation of both nature's beauty and man's artistic prowess. The lyre placed near him serves as a reminder that music has always been closely tied to human expression. As we delve into mythology through this photograph, Anderson skillfully captures not only Apollo's physical attributes but also his divinity. This artwork transports us beyond mere mortal existence into realms where gods once roamed freely among men. Dating back to approximately 1890 AD when this photograph was taken, it is clear that Alinari has expertly captured the timeless allure of this masterpiece from Greco-Roman times. It reminds us that even after centuries have passed since its creation during the first century BC or second century AD; its power still resonates within our souls today.
