THE GREAT candle inspired with “classical” and, at the same time, “surreal” form. Sculpture ‘Fragmentary colossal head of a youth’ was found in a Pergamon gymnasium - the youth, with long curling locks and a brooding expression, was originally part of a draped bust set into a marble roundel almost four feet in diameter and may represent a young god or possibly Alexander the Great.
The marvellous thing about this figure is that even in its damaged condition, the head exemplifies the combination of sensitivity and presence. The soft milkiness of the face is interrupted by a break, severing the head at an angle right below the eyes. Beauty and violence.
