EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Greek art: the representation of Athena catching Giant Alcyonee by the hair. The artwork is part of the Frieze of the Gigantomachia from the altar of Zeus at Pergamon, created in low relief during the reign of Eumene II (197-159 BC). Currently housed in Berlin's Pergamon Museum, this ancient masterpiece reflects both mythology and violence. The image captures a fierce battle scene between gods and giants, with Athena taking center stage as she confronts Giant Alcyonee. The colors are vibrant and rich, adding depth to every detail carved into this wooden bas-relief. This work not only represents ancient Greece but also serves as a testament to its culture and history. Luisa Ricciarini's skillful photography brings out every intricate feature, allowing viewers to appreciate the craftsmanship behind this mythological depiction. From angelic seraphs hovering above to Turkish influences evident in their clothing, there is an undeniable fusion of cultures within this artwork. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness an epic clash between divine beings. It reminds us that even amidst chaos and conflict, beauty can be found in art that spans centuries.
