EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable "Victory stele of Sargon" from ancient Mesopotamia. Carved in diorite during the 24th Century B. C. , this archeological artifact now resides in the Musee du Louvre in Paris, France. The stele stands tall and proud, despite its damaged state, offering a glimpse into the rich history of Sumerian art. In this vertical bas relief, we witness an awe-inspiring scene where a male likeness, believed to be King Sargon himself, is depicted holding court. Dressed in traditional clothing that reflects his status as a powerful ruler, he exudes authority and strength. The composition also includes several people standing in line behind him, perhaps representing his loyal subjects or conquered enemies paying homage. The meticulous craftsmanship on display highlights the skill of ancient artisans who expertly captured human representation through intricate carvings. The choice of diorite as the medium adds to the grandeur and durability of this masterpiece. Despite being thousands of years old, it remains intact indoors at the museum for all to admire. This print offers viewers a unique opportunity to appreciate both historical significance and artistic excellence. It serves as a window into an ancient civilization's triumphs and cultural achievements while reminding us of our shared human heritage across time and space.
