📷 Box mirror with the head of Pan, late 4th century b.c.; Hellenistic Greek, Bronze.
.
Box mirrors, like this one, came into use toward the end of the fifth century B.C. It consists of a protective cover bearing a relief that was hammered separately and applied. On this box mirror, the edges around the head of Pan bear evidence of the procedure. By lifting the ring below the relief, one could reveal the mirror, a bronze disk with a highly polished surface.
.
Being a woodland creature like the satyr, Pan is always portrayed with the horns, ears, and shaggy legs of a goat. Here he wears a fawn’s skin with two small hooves tied in a knot around his neck. His long curls are in disarray, his forehead is slightly furrowed, and his eyebrows are raised in an expression that verges on pathos. This rendering of Pan recalls portraits of Alexander the Great. Following his death in 323 B.C., Greek artists adapted the Macedonian ruler’s features for their likenesses of gods.

Blogissa Markku Kailaheimon @markkukailaheimo essee Poseidonios ja Sielun Värityskirja. ▫️
Kreikkalainen platonistilääkäri Galenos ( n. 129-200) hyökkäili teoksissaan hanakasti stoalaisen koulun kolmatta johtajaa Khrysipposta (n. 280–205 eaa.) vastaan, käyttäen aseenaan keskistoalaista Poseidoniosta (135 – 51 eaa.). Vaikka Galenoksen esitykseen onkin syytä suhtautua varauksellisesti, hänen useiden suorien sitaattiensa perusteella voitanee Poseidoniosta pitää eklektikkona, joka oli omaksunut filosofiaansa Platonin (427–347 eaa.) sieluteorian. Tuo teoria, jossa sielu oli jaettu stoalaisista poiketen kolmeen osaan, järki-, into- ja himosieluun, osoitti Galenoksen mukaan stoalaisten teorian puutteellisuuden tunteiden synnyssä ja erityisesti järjen mahdollisuudet vaikuttaa tunteisiin.

Freskon teemana on kreikkalaisten filosofien Platonin ja Aristoteleen välinen kiista totuuden etsinnästä. Ateenan kouluun on maalattu myös monien Rafaelin aikalaisten muotokuvat kuten Leonardo da Vinci, Bramante ja Michelangelo. Valokuva: Antiikin Historia ja Kulttuuri.
