"This week, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., will unveil the Dying Gaul, a Roman statue created in the 1st or 2nd century A.D., on loan from Italy's Musei Capitolini. A triumph of marble sculpture, the work poignantly depicts a fatally wounded Gallic soldier lying on his shield and slumped to one side, his weapons and trumpet strewn around him. The Dying Gaul is a copy of a lost Greek original from the 3rd century B.C., probably made to commemorate Greece's victory over invading Gallic tribes at the time. Though vanquished, the warrior bows his head in composed reflection, his quiet resolve as enduring a message of courage today as it was centuries ago.\n\nThrough March 16, 2014, at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.; nga.gov"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
