EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed close-up of the famous sculpture "Atlas, copy of a Greek Hellenistic original". Crafted from marble by Roman artisans, this masterpiece can be found at the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Naples, Italy. The photograph, taken by A© David Lee and now part of the eDavid Lees Photography Archive, perfectly captures the essence and power behind this iconic figure. Intriguingly depicted with a weight on his shoulders and holding a globe representing the world, Atlas symbolizes strength and endurance. His magnificent beard adds to his authoritative presence as he bears the weight of the universe upon his shoulders. This image serves as a reminder of human resilience in facing life's burdens head-on. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this photograph - from the intricate carving on Atlas' face to the delicate texture of the marble itself. It invites viewers to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork through David Lee's lens, we are transported back in time to an era where mythology intertwined with everyday life. It reminds us that even though centuries have passed since its creation, art continues to transcend time and connect us with our collective past.
