2:25 pm : "Première Victoire d'Hannibal, 1885" (en plâtre) par Antoine Bourdelle pendant l'exposition "Balenciaga, l'oeuvre au noir" au musée Bourdelle - Paris, Avril MMXVII.
Oeuvre de jeunesse de Bourdelle, la première Victoire d'Hannibal fut présentée au Salon des Artistes Français de 1885 où elle obtint une mention honorable; elle assura à la carrière parisienne du sculpteur de vingt-quatre ans des débuts prometteurs. Le sujet de l'oeuvre fut soufflé à Bourdelle par sa lecture de Salammbô de Gustave Flaubert. Cet ouvrage relate un épisode sanglant de l'enfance d'Hannibal, le futur général carthaginois tuant un aigle à la force de ses seuls bras. Le traitement virtuose de l'oeuvre permet à l'artiste de signaler sa maîtrise dans le rendu de l'anatomie et sa science en matière de composition. Une série d'esquisses conservées au musée Bourdelle et au musée Ingres de Montauban témoignent du soin que Bourdelle mit à déterminer l'attitude de l'aigle et de l'enfant.
Artists manifested themselves in art, not the world, so humans could encounter them there, forever. People could return to books at any time and find them right there, those burning souls, their words as bright as the day they were written
Yes, Greece still exists, we didn't all die 2000 years ago. Yes, people speak Greek. You people are so fucking stupid for real. So many of you claim to love ancient shit but can't even acknowledge the actual living culture of the people whose mythology and classics you romanticize. You keep leaving annoying comments about how you just forget Greek people still exist, thinking you're being quirky because you love ancient stuff soooo much that you forgot about the people it came from. You think about it so little you don't even realize that an actual Greek person has to read this shit, making it clear how little you actually care about the culture beyond the romanticized (and westernized) mythology. Don't claim you love Greece, don't use our mythology anymore if you can't acknowledge that we're still around without making it about how little you think about us. It's mind boggling that you'd think a Greek person would read this and think you're anything but obnoxious. Explode.
