During the siege of Troy Achilles’ friend Patrocles was killed by Hector, the Trojan king Priam’s son. As revenge Achilles therefore killed Hector. The relief depicts how the old king Priam begs Achilles on his knees to turn over the body of his son. The relief is unique with its rhythm of the three figures on the left that like in a filmic sequence ends in the kneeling figure of Priam, and also the distance – physically and mentally – which exists between the elevated Greek hero and the old king. The themes of the relief are on a general level humility and mercifulness. Achilles in the end gives in to the plea of the father and hands over the body of the son.
I make the figures with marble, a resistant material, which allows the figure to be exposed even outdoors and look even more beautiful over the years.
The statue helps people calm down, not impatient, not hasty. It reminds us there are many difficulties and sadness outside but if we just think about all the goodness, just smile and you will feel the life much easier.
Our figures are made by hand using high quality natural marble stone therefor each piece is unique and may slightly be different in shape and color.
