EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stone statue of the Mother Goddess, discovered at the Temple of Hagar Qim in Malta. Belonging to the Neolithic period, this ancient civilization left behind remarkable artifacts that continue to intrigue archaeologists and historians alike. Against a striking black background, this studio shot emphasizes the intricate carving and craftsmanship evident in this ancient relic. Although damaged over time, this stone statue offers a glimpse into the religious beliefs and practices of our prehistoric ancestors. The enigmatic expression on the goddess's face leaves us wondering about her significance and role within their society. Standing tall and vertical, she is a single object that represents an entire era lost in time. The incomplete nature of this artifact adds to its allure, as it sparks curiosity about what may have been lost or intentionally left unfinished by its creators. This bizarre yet mesmerizing piece invites us to reflect on our own connection with history and spirituality. As we delve into the past through art and craft preserved from antiquity like this stone statue, we are reminded of how far humanity has come while acknowledging our shared roots. Let us cherish these remnants from another age as windows into our collective heritage rather than mere objects for commercial use.
