The Man & the Lion

A Lion and a Man chanced to travel in company through the forest. They soon began to quarrel, for each of them boasted that he and his kind were far superior to the other both in strength and mind.

Now they reached a clearing in the forest and there stood a statue. It was a representation of Heracles in the act of tearing the jaws of the Nemean Lion.

“See,” said the man, “that’s how strong we are! The King of Beasts is like a toy in our hands!”

“Ho!” laughed the Lion, “a Man made that statue. It would have been quite a different scene had a Lion made it!”

It all depends on the point of view, and who tells the story.

Cultural property is a complex topic, and I hope this article helps spur even more conversations within the Museum and externally. To summarize as we all are aware and is reflected in near-daily news stories museum collections are under increasingly intense scrutiny. Art museums such as The Met steward important resources of world heritage, and we welcome the growing engagement of the public in our critical long-term work as a public-serving institution. As a preeminent voice in the global art community, it is incumbent upon The Met to engage more intensively and proactively in examining certain areas of our collection and to increase the resources we dedicate to this ongoing crucial work.
