EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite sculpture titled "Wounded Bitch" made from pentelic marble. Created by a Roman artist in the 4th century BC, this piece is now housed in the Museo Barracco in Rome, Italy. The statue is actually a Roman copy of an original Greek work by Lysippus, with its authenticity confirmed by Sopratos' signature. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of movement and emotion within this classical masterpiece. A female dog lies down on her wounded limb, displaying vulnerability and pain through her posture. Her injured state is evident as she licks her wound with a sense of self-soothing. The image invites us to contemplate not only the physical suffering depicted but also our own capacity for empathy towards animals. It serves as a reminder that injuries and wounds are not exclusive to humans; they affect all living beings. Through this artwork, we witness the timeless connection between art and nature, as well as our shared experiences of injury and healing. This powerful portrayal evokes feelings of compassion while highlighting the resilience found within both animals and humans alike. Bridgeman Images has skillfully captured this momentous sculpture through Stefano Baldini's lens, allowing us to appreciate its intricate details and emotional depth without commercial intent or use mentioned.
