EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing bronze sculptures by Adriaen de Vries in the enchanting garden of Drottningholm Castle on Lovon Island. The focal point of the image is a group of wrestlers frozen in time, their muscular bodies and intense expressions capturing the raw energy and strength of these ancient athletes. Created in 1969, these sculptures are a testament to de Vries' mastery as an artist and his ability to bring life-like qualities to his works. The baroque style shines through in every detail, with intricate textures and dynamic poses that evoke a sense of movement within the stillness. The setting adds another layer of beauty to this composition. Surrounded by lush greenery, flowers blooming delicately around them, these statues stand as silent guardians amidst nature's splendor. Drottningholm Castle itself provides a majestic backdrop, its grandeur echoing throughout history. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to an era when art flourished and castles were symbols of power and opulence. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, masterpieces like these continue to captivate our imaginations. Erich Andres has skillfully captured this moment for us to appreciate from afar. His keen eye for detail allows us to admire not only the craftsmanship behind each sculpture but also the harmony between man-made artistry and natural beauty found within this UNESCO World Heritage site.
