"El discóbolo de Mirón", 2017.
Unique limited and numbered edition. Copy 471/998.
Enclosed bronze sculpture with numbered marble base and original box.
Measurements: 34 x 21 x 21 cm (with base).
The Discóbolo de Mirón is presented in an exclusive and limited edition, organized in five series of 998 copies. Made in bronze using the lost wax technique, this sculpture recreates the Ancient Greek ideal of beauty, characterized by balance, movement and harmony.
The original work by Myron of Eléuteras has not been preserved, but its form is known thanks to Roman copies, especially the so-called Lancellotti Discobolus, preserved in the Palazzo Massimo alle Terme. This edition takes up that model and reproduces it in bronze through a certified artisan process, in which each piece is molded, assembled and numbered by hand on a base with bas-relief inscription and travertine marble pedestal.
The sculpture is accompanied by the book Greek Sculpture, a large-format volume dedicated to Hellenic art, which includes specialized studies and an analysis of the Discobolus itself. The set is presented in a case designed both for its protection and its aesthetic value, reinforcing its character as a collector's item.
