EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jacques Carrey's meticulous study of a pediment from the Parthenon. The pencil on paper artwork, now housed in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, is a testament to Carrey's skill as an artist. The image captures a portion of the grand fronton, revealing intricate details of Greek architecture. A majestic horse takes center stage, its muscular form beautifully rendered with delicate pencil strokes. Surrounding the horse are fragments of frieze depicting gods and mythological figures. Carrey's sketch perfectly encapsulates the essence of classical design - from the imposing columns that frame the composition to the precise rendering of every architectural element. This piece exemplifies his deep understanding and appreciation for architectonic principles. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to ancient Greece, where masterpieces like the Parthenon were born. It serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with art and our desire to capture beauty through various mediums. This particular print is brought to us by Fine Art Finder via www. bridgemanimages. com – an online platform dedicated to sharing exquisite works from renowned artists throughout history.
