EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient art, known as the "Painted slab, the so-called black horseman". Created by the Greek School in the 4th century BC, this masterpiece measures an impressive 146x58 cm and is currently housed at the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Paestum in Capaccio, Salerno, Campania, Italy. The image depicts a striking figure of a man on horseback, commonly referred to as a cavaliere or rider. This evocative portrayal captures the essence of antiquity and offers us a glimpse into ancient Greece's rich cultural heritage. The attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the intricate patterns adorning both rider and steed to their expressive facial features. The artist skillfully conveys not only the strength and power of these majestic creatures but also their harmonious connection with humans throughout history. The black horseman exudes an aura of authority and grace as he commands his mount with confidence. This artwork serves as a testament to our fascination with animals throughout time. Horses have long been revered for their beauty and loyalty, symbolizing freedom and adventure. Through this painting's timeless appeal, we are transported back to an era where horses played an integral role in warfare and daily life. Luisa Ricciarini has expertly captured this historical treasure through her lens, preserving its beauty for generations to come. Her dedication allows us to appreciate not only this particular work
