Epicureanism – Busts of Venus, Athena, Epicurus

Thanks

This bust have made by an artist called "Monica Rafaeli". She is a friend of mine. She made it for me as a copy of the one of the "Musei Capitolini" in Rome. Now she is quite famous, so if some one wants a copy it will be quit expensive.

I always immaginated Epicurus on a wheel chair. It is strage for me to see a sculture standing.

Wow I liked that sculpture - good job! Michele you have a copy of Bernard Frischer's Scuplted Word and his discussions and photos of the seated Epicurus? That's they way I primarily see him too, but surely in his younger years he was not always so, and I would like to picture him in his prime rather than in his declining years.

I don't think Epicurus would call his old age "Decline". He also considered happy the day of his death.
But you are right, we can depict Epicurus in the moment we prefer.

Sorry, no.
