Sculpture, Maimonide - 25 cm - Marble

- Marble sculpture. An interesting direct carving in archaising taste, gracefully adopting the synthetic volumes of the late antique Mediterranean.

- This marble head, of deliberate and solemn archaism, seems to emerge from the mist at the equator of the Middle Ages as the receptacle of all the wisdom of the Mediterranean. In the severity of its features and in the depth of its petrified gaze, the gravity of the centuries inscribed in stone is read, evoking those sages and prophets who, from Maimonides to Averroes, passing through Boethius' intellectual martyrdom, wove the bridge between ancient reason and revealed faith. It is a piece that breathes the air of Granada’s Quranic libraries, where the water of the fountains accompanied the study of the Alexandria legacy, and it transports us to that hybrid and magnificent Sicily of the Hohenstaufen, where marble witnessed the coexistence of Arab calligraphy, Latin rigor, and Greek nostalgia. Each groove in its beard and each plane of its face are a map of universal knowledge, an image that does not represent a single man, but the very idea of thought that survives the fall of empires, guarding in its silence the memory of a world where philosophy was the only possible homeland.

- Dimensions of the work: 30 x 25 x 20 cm
- From a private collection in Madrid.
- Good overall condition.
