Lost in Translation - When Romans Tried to Copy Greek Style, but Ended Up with an Egg-cellent Fertility Symbol!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are transported back in time to the ancient city of Ephesus in Turkey. The ruins of Roman inscriptions and decorations stand weathered by centuries, proudly displaying their attempt at copying the exquisite artistry of the Greeks. As we examine the intricate carvings on the marble surface, one particular motif catches our eye - a peculiar egg shape. Little did those Romans know that they were unintentionally immortalizing a symbol of fertility! Perhaps it was lost in translation or simply a stroke of artistic genius gone awry. Nonetheless, this unique blend of Roman and Greek influences creates a fascinating visual narrative. The classical elegance meets its quirky counterpart as these copied inscriptions tell tales from two different worlds colliding. Credit goes to Nancy Noble Gardner for capturing this mesmerizing moment through her lens and Jaynes Gallery for showcasing it within Danita Delimont's collection. It serves as a reminder that travel and tourism can unveil unexpected treasures like these hidden gems waiting to be discovered amidst ancient ruins. So let your imagination wander as you explore this snapshot frozen in time – where cultures collide and symbols take on new meanings beyond what even the original artists could have imagined!
