€ 4 000 – 6 000
Provenienz: Aus dem Atelier des Künstlers. / EnBW Stuttgart (Lederer-Bau). - Privatbesitz Baden-Württemberg. Prometheus (dt. der ''Vorausdenkende'') zählt zu den Titanen in der griechischen Mythologie, der sich durch Klugheit und vielerlei Kenntnisse auszeichnet. Bei einem Tieropfer greift er zu einer List, um Zeus zu täuschen. Er überlässt ihm nur die wertlosen Teile des Opfertiers und behält das genießbare Fleisch für die Menschen, die seine Schützlinge sind. Zur Strafe dafür verweigert der erzürnte Zeus den Sterblichen den Besitz des Feuers. Als Prometheus dieses stiehlt und zur Erde zurück bringt, wie hier dargestellt, lässt Zeus den Frevler an einen Felsen schmieden und einen Adler täglich seine Leber fressen bis er von Herakles erlöst wird. ''Erich Koch reibt sich in seiner Erinnerung an dem mimetischen Grundzug der griechischen Plastik und stellt bei seiner ganz persönlichen Antikenrezeption das Bestreben und das Ziel der griechischen Plastik allgemein, den Menschen möglichst vollkommen abzubilden, in Frage. Er erfindet neue Ausdrucksformen für den Ausdruck der Wirklichkeit in seiner Zeitgenossenschaft'' (Clemens Jöckle).
