EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning marble relief depicting the epic Battle of Gods and Giants, originating from Aphrodisias in Turkey during the Roman civilization of the 2nd century A. D. The intricate detail captured in this ancient artifact highlights two prominent figures - goddess Artemis and a mesmerizing half human, half snake deity. The craftsmanship on display is truly remarkable as every curve and contour has been skillfully carved into the marble surface. The scene depicts an intense conflict between gods and giants, with Artemis gracefully positioned alongside her formidable serpent-like counterpart. The composition of this bas-relief is strikingly horizontal, allowing for a comprehensive view of the battle unfolding before our eyes. As we delve deeper into its mythology-laden narrative, it becomes evident that this artwork represents not only a clash between divine beings but also symbolizes the eternal struggle between good and evil. Intriguingly absent of any human presence, this indoor piece transports us back to ancient times where deities reigned supreme. The male likeness donning a suit of armor juxtaposed against Artemis' powerful female form serves as a reminder of gender dynamics prevalent during that era. Preserved through centuries, this archaeological artifact offers us glimpses into the past while showcasing artistry at its finest. Its significance lies not only in its historical value but also in its ability to evoke wonderment and awe within all who behold it.
