EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The rest of Hermes" a stunning bronze sculpture that originated in ancient Greece and was later replicated by the Romans. The original Greek masterpiece was crafted by the renowned sculptor Lysippe, while this particular Roman rendition can be found at the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Naples, Italy. Standing at an impressive height of 105 cm, this bronze sculpture depicts the god Hermes, also known as Mercury in Roman mythology. Known for his role as a messenger between gods and mortals, Hermes is portrayed here with great attention to detail and craftsmanship. The artist, Luisa Ricciarini, has skillfully captured both the divine essence and human-like qualities of this mythological character. The intricate carving on display highlights not only the artistic prowess of ancient civilizations but also their deep reverence for deities. This piece serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of both Greece and Rome during their respective empires. As we gaze upon this remarkable work of art, we are transported back in time to an era where mythology intertwined with daily life. Through its timeless beauty and historical significance, "The rest of Hermes" continues to captivate viewers today just as it did centuries ago.
