'Fragment of a Colossal Head of a Youth'
This black and white photograph presents a close-up of the 'Fragment of a Colossal Head of a Youth,' often thought to depict Alexander the Great. The stark monochromatic contrast accentuates the delicate contours of the face, the curved lips, and loose curls. A dramatic break at the bridge of the nose divides the face, with the upper portion lost to time, adding a poignant layer to the image. This flaw introduces a unique charm and theatricality—delicate beauty marred by violence, fitting for the legendary conqueror. This print captures the exquisite artistry of Hellenistic sculpture and the formidable aura of its famed figures, an iconic addition to the home for any admirer of ancient history or classical antiquity.
