EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing image of the Nabatean God Dushares, dating back to the 1st century. With its vibrant colors and intricate details, this artefact transports us to ancient Arabian mythology. Dushares, often equated with Dionysus in Greek mythology, is depicted here as a powerful male deity wearing a headband that signifies his divine status. The studio shot against a black background enhances the intensity of this religious icon's presence. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage and deep-rooted beliefs of the Middle East during that time period. The craftsmanship involved in creating such an exquisite object is truly remarkable. Dushares holds great significance not only within Nabatean religion but also in Roman mythology where he is associated with Bacchus or Dionysius. This fusion of deities from different cultures reflects the interconnectedness and exchange of ideas prevalent in ancient Arabia. Mike Dixon's masterful photography allows us to appreciate every nuance and color variation present on this artifact. It serves as a window into a bygone era when gods were worshipped fervently and their images held immense reverence. As we delve deeper into understanding this extraordinary piece, it becomes evident that it represents more than just an archaeological find; it symbolizes faith, spirituality, and human fascination with divinity throughout history.
