EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Statue of Peutesilea, Queen of Amazons, from the western gable of the Temple of Asclepius in Epidaurus. Dating back to the 4th century BC, this ancient artifact stands as a testament to Greek civilization and its rich mythology. Despite being damaged over time, this full-length sculpture still exudes an air of grandeur and power. Against a pristine white background, the statue's vertical composition commands attention. With a side view perspective, it reveals intricate details such as traditional clothing adorning Peutesilea's regal figure and her strong resemblance to a female warrior. The broken horse beside her further emphasizes her connection with Amazonian legends. Through this studio shot, we are transported back in time to witness the artistry and craftsmanship that went into creating such masterpieces. This archaeological artifact not only represents human likeness but also animal representation - showcasing how ancient Greeks seamlessly blended both elements within their artwork. As we gaze upon this print, we cannot help but be reminded of our past and how civilizations before us celebrated their history through art. It serves as a reminder that even though centuries have passed since its creation, beauty can transcend time and continue to captivate us today.
