Measurements: 14" H x 8" W x 5" D About the process: Cold Cast Bronze figures are heavy, detailed, a little shinier than 100% metals, and they actually look better than solid bronze. This new material is a fantastic compromise that keeps the beauty, substantial weight and quality, and detail of bronze while keeping replicas affordable. Bronze and resin are the most common materials for realistic figurines. About the subject(s): The R*pe of Polyxena by Pio Fedi is a four-figure marble group that re-enacts the abduction, already narrated by Euripides and Virgil, of young Polyxena . This remarkable work was purchased by the city of Florence on condition that the artist would not reproduce the subject, and it was placed here in the Loggia with the works of some of the greatest of Italian sculptors. It represents a mythological subject, the forcible abduction of Polyxena by Achilles .

The sacrifice of Polyxena by the triumphant Greeks ( Attic black-figure Tyrrhenian amphora , ca. 570–550 BC) In Greek mythology , Polyxena ( / p ə ˈ l ɪ k s ɪ n ə / ; Ancient Greek : Πολυξένη , romanized : Poluxénē ) was the youngest daughter of King Priam of Troy and his queen, Hecuba . [ 1 ] She does not appear in Homer , but in several other classical authors, though the details of her story vary considerably. After the fall of Troy, she dies when sacrificed by the Greeks on the tomb of Achilles , to whom she had been betrothed and in whose death she was complicit in many versions. [ 2 ]
