EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artefact from the 5th century BC - "The Marriage of Zeus and Hera".

Crafted with meticulous detail, this masterpiece features Parian marble for the head and arms set against a backdrop of limestone. In this vibrant depiction, we witness the divine union between two powerful deities. Zeus, the king of gods and men, stands tall exuding strength and authority. Beside him stands his queen and sister Hera, radiating grace and beauty. Their sacred bond is symbolized by their joined hands as they unite in holy matrimony. Every brushstroke brings to life the vivid colors that adorned this ancient artwork centuries ago. The hues accentuate each figure's ethereal presence while adding depth to their celestial realm. As we gaze upon this magnificent piece of history captured by CM Dixon's lens, we are transported back to an era where religious beliefs held great significance.
