# Perseus and Andromeda [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [PUGET, Pierre]() - Date: 1651-1700 - Technique: Marble, height 320 cm ## Commentary In 1684, Puget signed his Perseus and Andromeda as "P. Puget Massil\[iensis\] pic\[tor\] sc\[ulptor\] arch\[itectus\]" which shows his uncompromising professional pride - he was indeed painter, sculptor and architect. It was as a sculptor that Puget managed to display his works at Versailles, including the Milo of Croton that he took ten years to produce, followed by Perseus and Andromeda. The pain and alarm of the former was balanced by the triumphant thrust of the latter. ## Related artworks - [Alessandro Sauli]() - [Arm]() - [Assumption of the Virgin]() - [Atlas from the door of the Hôtel de Ville at Toulon]() - [Blessed Alessandro Sauli]() - [Bust of Marcus Aurelius]() - [Bust of Young August]() - [Christ Dying on the Cross]() - [Door of the Hôtel de Ville at Toulon]() - [Door of the Hôtel de Ville at Toulon]() - [Door of the Hôtel de Ville at Toulon]() - [Exterior view]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
