EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient art - a red-figure pottery volute krater attributed to the Aurora Painter. The side depicted in this image tells the enthralling tale of Eos kidnapping Cephalus, transporting us back to the Etruscan civilization in 4th century B. C. Rome province, Italy. The intricate details and masterful craftsmanship evident in this vase are truly awe-inspiring. Standing tall and proud, it exudes classical elegance with its vertical shape and decorative urn-like design. Against a serene grey background, the vibrant red figures come alive, capturing our imagination. The central focus of this artwork is undoubtedly the scene depicting Eos seizing Cephalus. Every stroke on this pottery brings forth an incredible human representation as well as animal symbolism through the presence of horses and carts. The artist's skill is apparent in their ability to convey emotion and movement within such limited space. Preserved over centuries, this single object serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of ancient Falerii. Its discovery at Civita Castellana adds another layer of historical significance to its already impressive legacy. As we gaze upon this studio shot photograph, we can't help but be transported back in time - appreciating not only the artistic prowess behind it but also pondering upon the stories it holds within its delicate curves and intricate patterns.
