珀耳修斯与美杜莎的头

1804–6
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 548
在1787年至1801年间，卡诺瓦以梵蒂冈博物馆所藏的公元二世纪的罗马雕像《贝尔维德尔的阿波罗》为基础，雕刻了一座珀耳修斯的雕像。该雕像中的珀耳修斯挥舞着美杜莎的头颅，他在雅典娜的帮助下杀死了美杜莎。卡诺瓦在自己的工作室里展出这座雕像后，教皇庇护七世出资将其买下，放在原本放置《贝尔维德尔的阿波罗》的地方，后者暂时被拿破仑带去了法国。大都会博物馆持有的这个版本是一位名叫瓦莱丽·塔尔瑙斯卡的波兰女伯爵在那以后不久委托卡诺瓦制作的，有几处地方与原作有别。卡诺瓦的《珀耳修斯》以其在光滑中透出的庄严成为新古典主义英雄之美的典范。
