EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a Vix krater, an ancient vase used to mix wine and water, discovered in the Vix Grave in Burgundy, France. Dating back to the 6th Century B. C. , this bronze masterpiece is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Greek art that transcended borders. The focal point of this image captures a mesmerizing scene featuring soldiers and a quadriga. The soldiers are depicted with remarkable precision, their muscular forms engraved onto the surface of the vase. They stand tall and proud, evoking a sense of strength and valor. The quadriga steals attention with its majestic presence. This four-horse chariot symbolizes power and dominance as it charges forward with grace. Each horse is meticulously crafted, showcasing their individuality while working harmoniously together. The horizontal composition allows for every detail to be admired; from the delicate patterns adorning the vase's surface to each stroke that brings life to these ancient characters. The male likeness portrayed here adds depth and realism to this classical Greek artwork. Displayed in Musee Du Chatillonnais (Archaeological Museum) in Chatillon Sur Seine, Burgundy, this artifact stands as a testament to human creativity throughout history. It serves as a reminder of our fascination with both animal representation and human form within art. This studio shot offers us an opportunity to appreciate antiquities like never before - frozen moments from an ancient civilization brought back into focus for us all to admire today.
