EDITORS COMMENTS
. This intriguing print showcases the iconic Trojan Horse, a masterpiece of deception that played a pivotal role in the legendary Trojan War. Created by an anonymous artist in Germany during 1882, this woodcut captures the essence of this timeless tale. The image transports us back to ancient times, where heroes and gods clashed amidst the city of Troy.
