EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent stone relief from the 5th century BC, depicting Zeus and Hera in all their divine glory. The artwork, known as "Magna graecia: metope with Zeus and Hera" is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of ancient Greece. The metope was discovered at the E temple of Selinunte in Sicily, Italy, and now resides in the Museo Archeologico Regionale in Palermo. Its intricate carvings and exquisite details transport viewers back to a time when mythology played an integral role in society. Zeus, king of the gods, is depicted with his characteristic thunderbolt while Hera, his queen and sister, stands by his side radiating regal grace. Their majestic presence evokes awe and reverence for these mythological figures who held great power over mortal lives. Luisa Ricciarini's skillful capture brings out every nuance of this ancient masterpiece. The play of light on the stone relief highlights its texture and depth, allowing us to appreciate its craftsmanship even more. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of Greek mythology but also of the enduring legacy left behind by ancient civilizations. It serves as a reminder that art has always been a powerful medium for storytelling throughout history – bridging gaps between cultures and connecting us to our collective past.
