EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Stater coin from ancient Greece, dating back to 350-320 BCE. The coin depicts the powerful Goddess Athena, known for her wisdom and war strategy. Created by an unknown artist, this artifact is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the ancient Mediterranean. The image captures Athena's majestic presence with remarkable detail and precision. Her head is portrayed in close-up against a grey background, emphasizing her divine aura. The use of color adds depth and vibrancy to the coinage, highlighting its significance as both currency and art. Athena's association with animals is evident in this depiction as she stands beside a bull, symbolizing strength and fertility. This representation reflects not only Greek mythology but also their deep connection to nature. As we admire this panoramic studio shot, it transports us back in time to Magna Graecia when coins were not just means of exchange but also expressions of culture and religion. Through this piece of metal currency, we glimpse into the lives and beliefs of ancient Greeks. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago's Arts of Ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium collection, this photograph preserves our collective human history while celebrating female power embodied by Athena herself. It serves as a reminder that wisdom transcends time and continues to inspire women today.
