This print showcases a mesmerizing detail of the statue of Hades and Cerberus, originating from the Isia sanctuary at Gortyna in Crete during the 1st century B. C. Steeped in Greek civilization, this ancient artifact transports us back to a time when mythology and religion intertwined seamlessly. Against a striking black background, Hades (also known as Pluto) stands tall with his long hair cascading down his shoulders and an intricately crafted beard adorning his face. In this studio shot, we witness Hades' contemplative gaze as he looks down upon us, evoking a sense of mystery and power that only gods possess. The sculpture's impeccable artistry captures every intricate detail of this male likeness; it is truly a testament to the skillful craftsmanship prevalent in ancient Greece. As we delve into history and archaeology through this single object, we are reminded of the rich tapestry woven by our ancestors. This image invites us to reflect on our past while marveling at the artistic prowess displayed centuries ago
