EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Roman sculpture that beautifully captures the essence of desire. Known as "Pothos Personification of Desire" this artwork is a Roman reproduction of the original Greek sculpture by Scopas, which was housed in the temple of Aphrodite in Megara during the 4th century BC. The sculpture depicts Pothos, a mythological character associated with longing and yearning. With intricate details and masterful craftsmanship, this piece exemplifies the artistic brilliance of ancient Rome. The smooth curves and lifelike features evoke a sense of sensuality and passion. Displayed at Musei Capitolini in Rome, Italy, this artwork stands as a testament to both Greek mythology and Roman artistry. It serves as an archaeological treasure that provides insight into the cultural significance placed on desire during ancient times. Luisa Ricciarini has expertly captured this remarkable piece through her lens, allowing viewers to appreciate its beauty from afar. This photograph not only preserves history but also invites us to delve into the world of gods and goddesses while marveling at their immortalized forms. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness how desire was revered and celebrated by our ancestors. It reminds us that throughout history, human emotions have remained constant - love, longing, and desire continue to shape our lives just as they did for those who lived centuries ago.
