EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable ancient coin depicting the powerful god Zeus Akraios. Created by an unknown artist between 138-192, this bronze coin is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the Roman Empire. The obverse side features a striking profile of Zeus, known as the god of the sky and ruler of all Olympian gods. His divine presence is palpable in this depiction, with his regal gaze and flowing beard capturing his authority and wisdom. On the reverse side, we are treated to a beautifully detailed prow of a ship, symbolizing Smyrna's maritime heritage. Minted in Smyrna (modern Izmir) in Ionia (Turkey), this coin not only serves as currency but also reflects the cultural significance and historical context of its origin. The vibrant colors on this print bring life to every intricate detail, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical importance. As we admire this piece at the Art Institute Chicago's Arts of Ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium collection, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how religion, finance, and art intersected during ancient Rome. With its rich heritage preserved through numismatics, this image reminds us that even small objects like coins can hold great significance for understanding our past civilizations. It stands as an enduring testament to human creativity across centuries while honoring both mythology and history alike.
