Apollo and Marpessa
myminifactory
This relief masterfully captures Apollo's swift grasp of the lovely mortal Marpessa. The elegant movement of her hand, as it reaches behind her head to draw the drapery over her body, perfectly harmonizes with Apollo's forward momentum. Her flowing drapery is expertly balanced by his expansive cloak. In the background, a delicate sprig of ivy skillfully tumbles over the outline of a column. Flaxman asserted that he aimed to 'translate the beauty and elegance of ancient poetry' into sculpture, 'excluding any unnecessary, impertinent or trivial objects'.
