EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the back of a mirror depicting the Dioscuri, discovered at the necropolis of Santa Caterina. Crafted from engraved bronze by an Etruscan artist, this artifact now resides in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale dell Umbria in Perugia, Italy. The Dioscuri, also known as Castor and Pollux, were twin brothers and sons of Zeus in Greek mythology. Renowned for their bravery and warrior skills, they were often depicted together as inseparable companions. This intricate engraving beautifully captures their noble essence. The incised details on this mirror's surface bring to life the strength and valor of these legendary figures. The twins are shown wearing traditional warrior attire with helmets adorned with feathers and carrying spears - symbols of their martial prowess. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, we are transported back to ancient times when mythological tales intertwined with everyday life. The craftsmanship displayed here is a testament to the skill and creativity of Etruscan artists who sought to immortalize these mythical heroes through their work. This print serves as a visual reminder that even after centuries have passed, art continues to connect us with our shared human history. It invites us to delve into the rich tapestry of myths and legends that have shaped cultures throughout time.
