Description from the seller

Bronze Head of Laocoon – Faithful reproduction of the famous Hellenistic sculpture

Total height: 25 cm | Weight: 4.5 kg | Dark green marble base

Discover the intensity and expressive power of this Bronze Head of Laocoon, a reproduction of one of the greatest masterpieces of Hellenistic art: the sculptural group of “Laocoon and His Sons,” housed in the Vatican Museums in Rome.

This work, cast in bronze using the lost-wax process, captures the drama of Laocoon's face in the midst of his struggle against fate: the muscular tension, the tense gaze, the mouth open in a silent scream. An eternal symbol of human resistance against divine will.

The head is mounted on an elegant dark green marble base, which enhances the work and ensures its stability and scenic presence.

The input is a dash character, which does not require translation.
