Introduction of laocoon and his sons sculpture

This group of laocoon and his sons sculpture was found on Mount Esquiline in Rome in 1506 and was immediately identified as Laocon, described by Pliny the Elder, as a masterpiece of the Rhodes sculptor. The story is that during the Trojan War, Father Laocon of Apollo in Troy warned his companion Trojan horse not to accept the Trojan horse left by the Greeks outside the city gate. Athena and Poseidon, who were partial to the Greeks, dispatched two huge sea snakes, who were entwined around Laocon and his two sons and were killing them. From the Roman point of view, the deaths of these innocent people were crucial to Enias’decision, because Enias heeded Lokorn’s warning and fled Troy, which led to the eventual establishment of Rome. There has been much debate about the date of the statue, which seems to have been made around 40-30 B.C.
