cults3d
Carrara marble sculpture by Jean-Baptiste Roman takes shape in Paris from 1792 to 1835, crafted and perfected with precision over four decades. Commissioned in 1832, Roman brings his artistic vision to life at the very heart of the Louvre Museum. The project is completed by Francois Rude in 1840, after the passing of his close friend. Marcus Porcius Cato Uticensis, widely known as Cato the Younger, is a prominent figure in late Roman Republic politics and statesmanship. A devoted follower of Stoic philosophy, he earns recognition for his exceptional oratory skills and unwavering determination, particularly during his prolonged conflict with Julius Caesar. Cato's unshakeable integrity and strong moral compass are well-documented, as is his intense disdain for the widespread corruption prevalent in that era. This stunning marble sculpture portrays Cato The Younger at a pivotal moment - as he prepares to take his own life while immersed in Plato's Phaedo dialogue, which chronicles the final hours of Socrates' life.
