Antigone Pouring a Libation over the Corpse of Her Brother Polynices 1867-70; carved 1870 William Henry Rinehart American Rinehart's sculpture represents a climactic scene from Sophocles's tragedy, "Antigone," written in or before 442 B.C. Antigone's brother, Polynices, was killed by Eteokles, and then denied a proper burial because he was considered an enemy of Thebes. Against the orders of the new ruler, Creon, Antigone courageously interred Polynices. Rinehart chose to depict the moment when she pours libations over her brother's grave, thereby stressing to the viewer the importance of fighting against tyranny for one's civil liberties. Of all Rinehart's sculptures, Antigone may be the most closely related to antique prototypes, showing an affinity with a draped figure once in the Vescovali collection in Rome..

Marble statue of a woman. Culture: Roman. Dimensions: H. 65 in. (165.1 cm). Date: 1st or 2nd century A.D..Copy or adaptation of a Hellenistic statue of the 2nd century B.C.This figure wears three layers of clothing: a sleeved chiton visible below the neck, which is tied with a looped knot at the waist; a second chiton or peplos, fastened on both shoulders; and a himation (cloak), draped over the left shoulder and the lower part of the body.
