Asset Overview

In Virgil, Laocoön was a priest of Poseidon who was killed with both his sons after attempting to expose the ruse of the Trojan Horse by striking it with a spear. In Sophocles, on the other hand, he was a priest of Apollo, who should have been celibate but had married. This particular sculpture was made by the unknown artist and is a copy of the original work. 3D scanned using photogrammetry in Hans Tausens Park in Copenhagen. Capturing of the scupture was done by 4 people/4 cameras by jointly dancing around the sculpture. Reconstructed in Reality Capture from about 1000 images. ![](http://rigsters.com/sketchfab_img/laocoon_3dscan-rigsters.jpg)
