Throughout the history of art, certain works stand out as the singular creations of virtuoso artists. For ancient Greek art, think of the black-figure amphora in the Vatican Museum by Exekias that represents Achilles and Ajax, which was made about a generation before the Sarpedon krater, or the Hellenistic bronze Statue of a Boxer at Rest in the Museo Nazionale Palazzo Massimo alle Terme in Rome.
During the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939), Spain became a battleground in the fight between freedom and fascism. Fascism prevailed. To gain a powerful and palpable impression of the civil war in Spain you can do no better than to read Ernest Hemingway’s masterpiece, For Whom the Bell Tolls. It is a story about a young American volunteer in the International Brigades, named Robert Jordan, who is attached to an anti-fascist guerrilla unit in the mountains of Spain.
