Consider the group of statues that make up the “Blinding of Polyphemus” group?
Consider the group of statues that make up the “Blinding of Polyphemus” group at Sperlonga. From what epic tale does this group represent a scene? To what geographically and chronologically defined style of sculpture do they belong?
Given the story, the style, and the place in which it was found, how is this group both similar to and different from style or art that Augustus promoted and the purposes to which he put works of art?
