This exquisite pair of Atlas figures represents the fusion of mythology and scientific exploration. One figure carries the terrestrial globe, symbolizing the weight of the world, while the other supports the armillary sphere, an ancient astronomical instrument that embodies celestial knowledge and human curiosity.
Both figures are masterfully crafted from oxidized brass, highlighting their sculptural depth and intricate detailing. The Earth and armillary sphere are meticulously engraved and plated in 24-carat gold, adding a touch of opulence to the design. Each figure is elevated on a refined wooden pedestal, featuring Latin inscriptions that evoke the grandeur of classical antiquity.
This exceptional set is a tribute to human endurance and intellect, making it an extraordinary decorative statement for collectors, scholars, or admirers of timeless artistry.
