Cast Bronze
48 × 56 × 36 cm
Menelaus was the king of Sparta whose abducted wife Helen ignited the Trojan War, a man whose personal wound set the ancient world ablaze and who spent years fighting to reclaim what was taken from him. The two figures locked in close physical struggle — one bearing the other's full weight — embody the desperate, unresolvable grip of a man whose identity and honor were bound up in another person.
