EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fragment of attic black-figure pottery from ancient Greece, specifically Athens, dating back to around 570 B. C. The piece depicts scenes of sport support, offering us a glimpse into the athletic culture of that era. Despite being damaged over time, this horizontal detail still retains its remarkable beauty and intricate design. Displayed at the Ethniko Arheologiko Moussio (National Archaeological Museum), this Greek art artifact is truly a testament to the skill and creativity of ancient craftsmen. The image captures a single object with a male likeness surrounded by people in a line, suggesting some form of game or competition taking place. What makes this artwork even more intriguing is the presence of both human and animal representations alongside non-western script text. It serves as an archeological treasure trove for historians and enthusiasts alike who seek to understand the rich history and cultural exchange prevalent during that period. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness these ancient sporting events unfold before our eyes. Though no people are visible in the frame itself, their presence can be felt through every brushstroke on this delicate pottery fragment
