Bellas artes parte 1

in blog •  6 years ago 

En 1820, cerca de Paleo Castro, la principal población de la isla de Milo (la antigua Melos de los griegos), en el archipiélago de las Cíclades, vivía un campesino llamado Yourgos. Un día, mientras trabajaba su tierra, encontró una estatua de mármol en dos piezas que representaba a la diosa Afrodita (Venus). Admirado de su belleza, laconservó en su casa durante algún tiempo, rechazando cuantas ofertas y reclamaciones recibía, basta que sus conciudadanos decidieron regalársela al Príncipe turco Morousi, que gobernaba por entonces la isla en representación del pachá otomano. Según algunos relatos contemporáneos, en el mismo instante en que los ciudadanos de Miloiban a embarcada con destino al palacio del príncipe, los componentes de una expedición francesa que durante mucho tiempo había intentado comprar la bella estatua, sorprendieron la maniobra, entablándose entre ambos grupos una batalla campal por la posesión de la ya conocida como Venus de Milo. Algunos relatos no totalmente comprobados añaden que, en el curso de la trifulca, la estatua se golpeó contra el suelo delemb Sarcadero, rompiéndose los dos brazos. Finalmente, los franceses, más numerosos o más aguerridos, se hicieron con el trofeo, escapando del lugar y abandonando por olvido o precipitación los brazos en la playa. Según este mismo relato, estos brazos fueron recogidos por los turcos y permanecen enterrados en paradero desconocido hasta la fecha.
