EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite ancient artifact known as the Aryballos, a container for oil dating back to the late 6th-early 5th century BCE. Crafted by an unknown artist, this piece is a testament to the remarkable craftsmanship and design of the time. The Aryballos, originating from Rhodes in Greece, is made using the glass core formed technique, highlighting its innovative nature even during that era. Its vibrant color adds a touch of elegance and allure to this historic vessel. Displayed at the renowned Art Institute of Chicago's gallery dedicated to arts of the ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium, this artifact holds immense cultural significance. It represents not only Greek heritage but also serves as a window into understanding ancient civilizations' daily rituals and practices. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are transported back in time - imagining how it was once used as a perfume or scent bottle in those distant days. The intricate details on its surface speak volumes about our ancestors' dedication to artistry and their appreciation for beauty.
