EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite sculpture of "Eros on a dolphin" by Roman, displayed at the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Naples, Italy. This masterpiece is a stunning representation of ancient Roman art inspired by a Greek original. The sculpture depicts Eros, also known as Cupid, gracefully riding atop a majestic dolphin. The intricate carving and attention to detail highlight the skill and craftsmanship of the artist. Eros, the god of love and desire in Greek mythology, is portrayed with elegance and beauty as he effortlessly glides through the water on his aquatic companion. The symbolism behind this artwork is profound - dolphins were often associated with protection and guidance in ancient times. Here we witness Eros being carried by this intelligent creature, signifying love's ability to transcend boundaries and navigate through life's challenges. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from antiquity, we are transported back to the glory days of the Roman Empire. It serves as a reminder of their appreciation for both beauty and mythology. Luisa Ricciarini has expertly captured this timeless work through her lens, preserving its essence for future generations to admire.
