Editor's Note:
La storia mai scritta delle riproduzioni delle più famose statue antiche: una lettura diversa e affascinante della storia dell'arte.Per secoli e secoli, fino a non molti anni fa, un gruppo di statue antiche, greche e romane, tra le quali l’Apollo del Belvedere, lo Spinario e il Laocoonte, ha suscitato un’ammirazione sconfinata, pari a quella che noi proviamo oggi per la Gioconda di Leonardo, per la Nascita di Venere del Botticelli o per il Mosè di Michelangelo.Per via di questa fama straordinaria, di queste statue si sono fatte, nel tempo, migliaia e migliaia di riproduzioni… Se ne vedono ovunque: in Italia, in Francia, in Inghilterra, in Spagna, in Germania, in America, in Unione Sovietica e in molti altri paesi ancora...Malgrado l’eccezionale importanza di questo episodio, che scandisce i tempi e i modi del rapporto tra l’arte moderna, dal Rinascimento in poi, e la grande arte dell’antica Grecia e di Roma, nessuno, fino ad oggi, ne aveva mai ricostruita la storia… Lo fanno brillantemente Haskell e Penny raccontando nella prima parte, in forma narratica, la storia di questo gruppo di capolavori dal ‘400 al ‘900 e, nella seconda, in altrettante voci di catalogo, la vicenda di ciascuna di oltre novanta tra le sculture più famose.
