D'après les calculs de la critique moderne, Phidias est né environ cinq siècles avant l'ère chrétienne; ainsi les frag ments du Parthe'non que nous admirons aujourd'hui n'au raient pas moins de demi mille deux cent soixante-seize ans. Car le Parthenon fut terminé dans la seconde année de la quatre - vingt - cinquième olympiade, c'est-à - dire quatre cent trente - huit ans avant Jésus - Christ. Il faut qu'il v ait dans les ouvrages de Phidias un mérite incontestable, puisque après vingt - deux siècles révolus ils sont encore en posses sion de l'admiration unanime des juges les plus sévères. Toutefois, si l'on veut bien tenir compte des circonstances au milieu desquelles se produisit le génie de cet artiste émi nent, ou reconnaîtra sans peine qu'il fut singulièrement favorisé par les progrès récents de l'art dont il devait reculer les limites. Sans nul doute, Phidias est un homme du premier ordre; sans nul doute, il appartient à cette famille de génies excellents qui paraissent dans l'histoire à de rares intervalles. Cependant tout en proclamant l'admirahle beauté de ses ouvrages, il ne faudrait pas croire qu'il a tiré tout de lui-même, qu'il n'a eu d'autres maîtres que son goût.
