EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Corinthian style Greek helmet dating back to the 6th century BC. Crafted from bronze, this remarkable piece of ancient armor was designed to provide protection for the wearer's face and cheekbones. However, its distinctive design also had a drawback - it impaired the wearer's field of vision. The helmet's historical significance lies in its association with ancient Greece and its military prowess. It serves as a tangible reminder of the importance placed on safeguarding oneself during battle in that era. The intricate details and craftsmanship evident in this artifact highlight the skill and artistry of ancient Greek artisans. In terms of aesthetics, this Corinthian helmet boasts an impressive color palette that has stood the test of time. Its bronzed hue exudes strength and durability while hinting at countless battles fought by those who wore it centuries ago. As we admire this photograph captured by CM Dixon, we are transported back to an era where warriors donned such helmets as they prepared for combat. This image not only preserves history but also evokes a sense of awe and respect for those who valiantly protected themselves using these iconic pieces of armor.
