EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Greek art: the presumed portrait of Seneque (Lucius Annaeus Seneca), a renowned philosopher of the Stoic school. The bronze bust, measuring 33 cm in height, was discovered in Villa dei Papiri in Ercolano (Herculaneum), Italy. The intricate details and lifelike expression captured in this sculpture are truly awe-inspiring. The artist's skill is evident as they expertly crafted every feature, from the delicate lines etched into Seneca's forehead to the subtle creases around his eyes and mouth. This masterpiece serves as a testament to the artistic prowess of ancient Greek sculptors. Seneca himself was an influential figure during Roman civilization, living from 4 BC to 65 AD. As one of history's most prominent Stoic philosophers, he left behind a legacy that continues to shape philosophical thought today. His teachings on virtue, ethics, and resilience have resonated with countless individuals throughout centuries. Displayed at Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Naples, Italy, this bronze sculpture offers viewers an intimate glimpse into the face of wisdom and contemplation. It serves as a tangible connection to an era long past while reminding us of the enduring power and relevance of philosophical inquiry. Luisa Ricciarini has masterfully captured this iconic artwork through her lens, allowing us all to appreciate its beauty and historical significance for generations to come.
