EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable detail of a Krater handle, originating from the Trebeniste Necropolis in Lake Ohrid, Macedonia. Created by Greek artisans during the 6th century BC, this bronze masterpiece stands at an impressive height of 72 cm. Currently housed in the Narodni Muzej in Belgrade, Serbia, this ancient artifact is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship and artistic prowess of its creators. The intricately designed handle features an archaic depiction of a Gorgon - a mythical creature with snakes for hair and a petrifying gaze. The skillful rendering captures every intricate detail of the Gorgon's fierce expression and serpentine locks. This particular Krater serves as both functional vessel and decorative artwork, showcasing how art was seamlessly integrated into everyday life during ancient times. As we admire this photograph captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back to an era where mythology intertwined with daily existence. The rich cultural heritage preserved within this piece invites us to delve deeper into the mysteries and stories that surround it.
