Description
Argo is Ulysses faithful dog. He has been looking ahead to his master’s go back to Ithaca from the Trojan War for over two decades. He’s the primary to acknowledge the King even if Ulysses is disguised as a beggar. As soon as Argos recognizes his master having fulfilled his destiny of religion by laying his eyes upon him over again, he releases a final whisper and dies.
The emotion of this piece of the poem is very high. Homer’s describes in his verses the dog’s death and the sensation is equal to if it used to be an hero.
From time immemorial the dog has been probably the most faithful loved one of man and Stipula determined to dedicate the dog this new fountain pen with its outstanding pen holder.
Argo lays looking ahead to his master. This can be a singular sculpture realized by a Florentine goldsmith for Academia Collection: a bronze casting with a specific hot gold finishing which prevents from oxidation and helps to keep the sculpture shining on a basement made from green marble from Guatemala.
