EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent sculpture of "Mercury riding Pegasus, known as the Horse of Marly" created by Antoine Coysevox in 1701-02. Standing at an impressive height of 326 cm, this marble masterpiece can be found in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. In this artwork, Mercury, the messenger god and symbol of speed and agility, is depicted astride Pegasus, the mythical winged horse. The attention to detail is exquisite; every muscle and sinew beautifully carved into the marble. At Mercury's feet lie trophies of war, emphasizing his role as a divine protector. Originally located at the horse pond in Marly-le-Roi before being moved to the Tuileries Gardens and finally finding its place in the Marly Court at the Louvre Museum, this sculpture has stood as a testament to artistic excellence for centuries. The symbolism behind this piece is profound - Mercury represents communication and swift movement while Pegasus embodies freedom and power. Together they create a harmonious fusion that captures both strength and grace. As you gaze upon this photo print, you are transported back in time to witness Coysevox's mastery firsthand. The intricate details on Mercury's armor and helmet draw your eye closer while Pegasus' wings seem ready to take flight at any moment. This photograph truly encapsulates not only a remarkable work of art but also an enduring symbol of mythology that continues to inspire awe today.
