About the Item

Rare antique carved wood reproduction of a clay relief sculpture by Harry Bates, depicting the Greek poet Homer, playing the lyre for two Muses. “The famed Greek epic poet Homer is said to have flourished around 700 B.C. Credited to him are the Greek epics, The Iliad and The Odyssey. The Greeks often portrayed Homer as blind. Blindness was also symbolic of inner vision. Harry Bates (1850 –1899) was a British sculptor. He was elected to the Royal Academy in 1892 as A.R.A. and was an active member of the Art Workers Guild. He was a central figure in the British movement known as new sculpture.
