About the Item
Lemnia II is a piece that evokes the ancient majesty of the sculpture of Athena Lemnia, an iconic work created by Phidias in the 5th century B.C. that once stood on the Acropolis of Athens. Through this contemporary work, the artist transports us to the grandeur and elegance of ancient Greece, offering a unique and modern interpretation of the famous bronze statue.
In this composition, the artist chooses to represent the head of the sculpture almost in profile, giving us a view where the details are precise and the contours are clearly defined. The tones used are meticulously delineated, creating sharp patches of color that outline the shape of the head with remarkable technical skill.
The arrangement of the tones, cut against each other, generates a visual effect similar to that of a poster, capturing the viewer’s attention immediately. The gaze of the head of the sculpture is directed to the left, where letters in warm tones, arranged in vertical reading, stand out against a background of blue tones, giving the work a vibrant and striking contrast.
