EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient times - a three-part pitcher originating from Luristan, Iran. Crafted with precision and skill around 800-700 BC, this earthenware piece is an exquisite representation of the artistic prowess of the Indus Valley Civilization. Measuring at 18.1x17x21.5 cm, this pitcher holds within its delicate form a glimpse into the rich history and culture of its creators. The intricate details on its surface tell stories of forgotten civilizations and their connection to nature. The Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA proudly houses this extraordinary find, acquired through the J. H. Wade Fund. Its presence in such esteemed surroundings is a testament to its significance as both an archaeological treasure and a work of art. As we admire this photograph, we are drawn to the graceful curves that shape the jar's body and handle. The depiction of animals adds an element of mystique - perhaps symbolizing spiritual beliefs or reflecting daily life during that era. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back in time to witness the ingenuity and creativity that flourished centuries ago. This image serves as a reminder that even after thousands of years have passed, human expression continues to captivate us with its enduring beauty.
