EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a bronze mirror from the mid-fifth century BC, which has been partially reassembled but is missing an erote. The mirror was created by the Greek School in the 5th century BC and measures 15.5 cm in diameter. It is currently housed in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Metaponto, Bernalda, Matera, Basilicata, Italy. The mirror's handle takes on the form of a woman holding a rabbit, adding an intriguing touch to its design. Originating from the necropolis of Pisticci in Metaponto, this artifact offers us a glimpse into ancient beauty care practices and toilet requisites. With its exquisite craftsmanship and historical significance as part of Magna Graecia's art scene, this bronze mirror reflects not only physical appearances but also cultural values during that era. Its presence speaks volumes about the artistic prowess of ancient Greece and their attention to detail. Photographer Luisa Ricciarini beautifully captures every intricate detail of this remarkable piece through her lens. This image serves as a testament to her talent for capturing archaeological artifacts with precision and finesse. As we admire this photograph print today, we are reminded of how art can transcend time and connect us with our rich historical pasts.
