EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to ancient Calabria, Italy, where a remarkable terracotta pinax resides. The artwork depicts a young woman, believed to be the mythical figure Persephone, delicately opening a box. Created in the 5th century B. C. , this piece is housed in the Museo Nazionale Della Magna Grecia (Archaeological Museum) in Reggio Di Calabria. The pinax showcases exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail despite its age and damage. Its cracked surface tells stories of an ancient civilization long gone but not forgotten. This studio shot captures every nuance of the sculpture's beauty against a simple grey background. As we gaze upon this archaeological artifact, we are transported into the rich history of ancient Greece. The female likeness portrayed here exemplifies Greek art at its finest – elegant and timeless. The significance of Persephone opening a box adds layers of intrigue to this piece. It invites us to ponder what secrets or treasures lie within that mysterious container. This print serves as a window into our past, reminding us of the incredible artistic legacy left by those who came before us. It is an ode to human creativity and representation throughout time – an homage to both art and craft
