EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a detailed section of the Pergamon Altar's Telephos Frieze, depicting a dramatic scene from Greek mythology. The Battle by the river Kaikos unfolds before our eyes, as two Scythian warriors - sons of the river-god Istros - meet their tragic fate in combat.
The intricate high relief carving brings to life the intensity and emotion of this ancient legend, showcasing the skill and artistry of Hellenistic period sculptors. The fallen warriors lie on the ground, their bodies frozen in eternal struggle, while nearby stands Heracles (Herakles), a legendary hero overseeing the battlefield.
As we gaze upon this fragment of history preserved in marble at the Pergamon Museum in Berlin, Germany, we are transported back to a time when myths and legends shaped human understanding of life and death. The depth and detail captured in this artwork invite us to contemplate themes of mortality, heroism, and sacrifice that have resonated through centuries.
This print serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring legacy of ancient civilizations and their artistic achievements. It is a testament to human creativity and imagination that continues to inspire awe and wonder today.
