Ignaz Franz Platzer - Prometheus - five studies
The plenty of Platzer’s sketches and compositional variants testifies to the remarkable measure of dutifulness which helped the artist arrive at the final artistic form. His inheritance includes numerous studies on the subject of Prometheus. The displayed work, of an unknown purpose, was probably designed to be solved as a relief.
