The sculptural composition is based on the myth of Laocoon from Greek mythology and tales of the Trojan War, vividly described in Virgil's Aeneid. Laocoon was the chief priest (seer) at Troy. When the Trojans saw under their fortress a wooden horse left by the Greeks as an "offering for Athena", they looked at it for a long time, wondering what to do with it. Some advised to bring it into the city, which was actively prevented by Laocoon, foreseeing the perfidy of the Greeks and seeing in such a "surprise" a hidden danger. He threw his spear at the horse with the words: "Fear the Danites who bring gifts!", which angered the goddess Athena.

When Laocoon and his sons were at the altar, they were attacked by two sea serpents, sent as punishment by Athena, the patroness of the Greeks in their war with the Trojans. After a long struggle, the serpents molested the priest and his children and hid in Athena's temple. The Trojans, misinterpreting the omen, took it as revenge of the goddess Laocoon for disrespecting her and unwillingness to accept the offering. As a result, it was decided to bring the Trojan horse into the city, along with which came destruction, because, as we know, inside the horse were Achaean warriors who put an end to the long and unsuccessful until then siege of Troy.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Watercolor

Watercolor is a painting in which gum arabic binds transparent pigments revealing the support of the painting. The gouache, of identical composition, is opaque. A watercolor is a water-based painting on paper. We rarely speak of a painting for a work painted in watercolor. Watercolor paintings are considered to be a unique way to creatively represent dreams, illusions, emotions and luminous feelings using water soluble pigments. However, painting with watercolors can be difficult. It's a difficult medium to master, in large part because it can be ruthless and unpredictable. Mistakes are difficult to correct and its fluid nature makes it difficult to control. Yet it is these very qualities that give the medium its undeniable charm.

Figurative

Figurative and colorful painting having taken the liberty of including all forms of art without border of cultural genre and geographic origin, without hierarchy of values between high and subculture.

Technic Painting

Painting is an art form of painting on a surface by aesthetically applying colored fluids. Painters represent a very personal expression on supports such as paper, rock, canvas, wood, bark, glass, concrete and many other substrates. Work of representation or invention, painting can be naturalistic and figurative, or abstract. It can have narrative, descriptive, symbolic, spiritual, or philosophical content.
