EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricately carved head of a colossal statue of a bearded worshipper, adorned with a helmet, hailing from ancient Cyprus during the 6th century BC. The statue, now fragmented, was discovered in Byblos, a Phoenician city in modern-day Lebanon, and is currently housed at the British Museum in London, England. The bearded figure, with his curly locks and expressive features, exudes an air of devotion and reverence. His smiling face, with its gentle, age-worn lines, invites us to contemplate the deep historical connections between the ancient Greeks and the cultures of the eastern Mediterranean. The meticulous attention to detail in the carving of the helmet and the intricate curls of the beard reveal the exceptional craftsmanship of the Cypriot artists of the time. This striking relic from the Archaic period offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the ancient world and the complex religious practices of the past.
