EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite sculpture "The Graces and Cupid" by Bertel Thorvaldsen. Created between 1820-22, this masterpiece is crafted from Carrara marble and can be found at the renowned Thorvaldsens Museum in Copenhagen, Denmark. In this particular detail of the artwork, we are drawn into an intimate embrace between The Graces and Cupid. Their faces and gazes captivate us, revealing a range of emotions that speak to the complexity of human relationships. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every curve and contour of their bodies, emphasizing their nakedness with grace and sensuality. Thorvaldsen's neoclassical style shines through in this piece as he draws inspiration from Greek mythology. The divine figures depicted here represent goddesses known as The Graces or Charites, symbolizing beauty, charm, and elegance. Cupid (also known as Eros), the god of love himself, adds an element of passion to the scene. The use of Carrara marble further enhances the ethereal quality of these sculptures while paying homage to classical art traditions. This print captures not only their physical beauty but also invites contemplation on themes such as tenderness, femininity, love, and mythological narratives. Ghigo Roli skillfully captures all these elements through his lens without commercial intent but rather with a desire to celebrate fine artistry for its intrinsic value.
