Polychrome terracotta sculpture. The sculpture represents the inspiring muse of the musicians. In the lower part, two musicians playing the flute are represented in two medallions. Euterpe is the muse of music, later also of lyric poetry and according to some, the inventor of the aulos. In representations it is often represented with an Aulos, the double aerophone called Tibia by the Romans. This instrument cannot be defined as a flute as it generally has a double reed, or simple reed (unlike the flute). In later representations she also begins to be depicted with simple flutes. According to many sources, she was the Muse who became Reso's mother. The father of the demigod would have been a king of Thrace, but the authors do not agree on which one it was: for Homer it was Eioneo while for the pseudo-Euripides it would have been Strymone, who later became a river god. Others, however, maintain that Reso was the son of the river and of a mortal woman.

Paolo Camporese is a contemporary Italian artist. The artist has an innate passion for sculpture which he combines with a love for classical forms. The result is "learned" forms, which express his knowledge of reality but do not stop there. Paolo Camporese says that he wanders into the Past discovering through the Present the road to the Kingdom of the Spirit, as the Pre-romantic Child, rich in experience yet innocent, still tied to classical ideals but eager to free himself through the Models of modernity.

Finally, Camporese's main interest remains the Human Element and its analysis: the Faces and Heads of Children of the 17th or 18th century reflect universal psychological characteristics, shared through the continuous Flow of Time, but revisited and reconstructed through modern eyes and sensibilities.

Paolo Camporese was born in 1961, in Italy. He has exhibited all over Italy and has worked with the following galleries Minarte Treviso, Artequadri Camposampiero (PD), XXI century Gallery Padua, Viaducadiarte Bologna.
