Laocoon

This statue is called Laocoon and His Sons. Pliny the Elder attributes its origin to 3 sculptors from the island of Rhodes. Their names were Agesander, Athenodoros, and Polydorus. They sculpted Laocoon in about 25 BC. Although there are some that say it was sculpted in 42 BC. All we know for sure is that is was sculpted some time between 50 and 25 BC. Laocoon was a priest of Neptune. He made the famous comment "I fear Greeks bearing gifts". He angered Poseidon by stabbing the side of the Trojan Horse. As punishment, he and his sons were strangled by snakes. As a result, the Trojans took the horse into the city which led to its demise. This sculpture resides in the Vatican museum in Vatican City.

Aedificatus marmoris est quae albus est. Habet caelaturas serpentium et hominum. Magnus homo est Laocoon. Parva viri sunt eum filii Laocoon. Laocoon erat sacerdotis Neptuni qui deus maris erat. Quamvis sacerdos Neptuni, erat Neptunus qui dicatur misisse serpentem. Eo missit serpentem ad castiganda Laocoon Frygii Equum vulnerato. Pro ille, Laocoon dicatur dixisse ut timuit Graeci doni latus. Deinde, transegit latus equum cum suus gladius. Cum Laocoon petivitur serpento, Troiugenae putaterunt ut equo sacrum erat atque portaverunt id in urbs. Cum Graeci putaverunt ut Ilion est delenda, ea res eversio Ilii fecit. Hic marmor ostendet maximus dolor de Laocoon. Est conatus sum eum filli salvare de serpentes. Nunc, hoc vivit in Romae. Est in unum apsidata pontificis maximi horti.
