3D model description

The Abduction of Polyxena (or The Rape of Polyxena) is a marble statue located in the Loggia dei Lanzi, the open-air museum in Florence, Italy's Piazza della Signoria. The work was sculpted in 1868 by the Italian sculptor Pio Fedi (1815-1892) who, albeit working chiefly in the Romantic style, was placed alongside several sculptures from the Renaissance. The Abduction of Polyxena embodies Hellenistic, Renaissance, Baroque and Neoclassical mannerisms regarding its style and theme. Fedi intricately blended multiple styles and stories in order to contruct the complicated work. The most prominent literary sources of the Greek legent concerning Polyxena are Ovid's Metamorphoses, Euripides' Hecuba and Bocaccio's Famous Women. Polyxena was the daughter of King Priam and Queen Hecuba of Troy. Achilles fell in love and wished to marry her.
