All the epigones find their own way What is this blog about? The etymology of “epigone” is from the Greek word ἐπίγονος, which means “born after”.
This blog is basically a personal and constant researching about the stylistic origin of some pieces of art and their author’s background; the historical context when such pieces were made; their source of inspiration; the birth of a trend and its developing through its epigones. It refers to the person who follows the style of former generations, someone who follows the steps of a school or an ar
tist they admire. In order that any artistic discipline carries on evolving it takes to have a sense of History and respect to our predecessors.
