ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Kalokagathia is an ancient doctrine the point of which in two words is "A perfect body, a perfect soul". Ethical and aesthetic was undivided for Greeks, therefore, this term describes best combination of these two principles. That means that perception was syncretic. On canvas depicted sculptural groups. The idea of kalokagathia was disclosed great in ancient sculpture, in its harmonious combination of form and depth of wise. A group of slaves depicted on central part of painting. Their figures seems to be burdened by their own corporeality, it burdens them and simultaneously combines inseparable. On the left side - figures of the gods of Olympus, exalted and effortless. On the right side - Titan, a symbol of inhuman strength and endurance inherent volitional beings. According kalokagathia one can not be separated from the other (ethical and aesthetic), as well as triptych parts can’t be divided between one another.
