This print captures a mesmerizing display of Greek vases adorned with erotic scenes, housed within the prestigious Etruscan Museum in Tarquinia. The photograph, taken between 1915 and 1920, showcases these ancient artifacts that date back to the 6th and 5th centuries BC. These exquisite vases are not only a testament to the artistic prowess of ancient Greece but also provide invaluable insights into their civilization's views on sexuality and relationships.
