EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite sculpture "Minerva" created by Joseph Francis Nollekens in 1775. Standing at an impressive height of 144 cm, this marble masterpiece can be found in the prestigious J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, USA. Nollekens sculpted Minerva on commission from Charles Watson-Wentworth, the 2nd Marquis of Rockingham, for his grand Grosvenor Square House in London. The sculpture is a part of the Judgement of Paris group and depicts the Roman goddess Minerva, also known as Athena or Pallas Athene in Greek mythology. With her striking beauty and classical elegance, Minerva stands tall with her helmet and shield symbolizing wisdom and war. Her presence evokes a sense of power and strength as she embodies both feminine grace and fierce determination. The intricate details carved into the marble bring to life this legendary figure from ancient times. As a patroness of arts, crafts, strategic warfare, and wisdom during Troy's fabled Trojan War era, Minerva holds immense significance within mythological narratives. This remarkable print not only captures Nollekens' artistic brilliance but also invites viewers to delve into the rich tapestry of Greek legends and myths that continue to inspire us today.
