EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient Greece, specifically the Minoan civilization. The Bulls head rython from Zakros, dating back to 1500-1450 BC, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage and artistic prowess of this era. Displayed in the Archaeological Museum of Heraklion on the beautiful island of Crete, this sculpture exudes an air of antiquity and mystery. Crafted with meticulous detail and precision, it serves as a window into the past, allowing us to glimpse into the world of Minoan art and civilization. The bull's head itself is intricately carved, showcasing the skillful craftsmanship that was prevalent during this time period. Its anatomical accuracy reveals not only an understanding of animal anatomy but also highlights the importance placed on depicting nature in art. As we admire this piece, we are transported back in time to Kato Zakros - its original home within a central sanctuary complex. It stands as a symbol of reverence for these ancient people who held bulls in high regard for their strength and power. Through photography by Frank Buffetrille, we are able to appreciate this extraordinary artifact even if we cannot physically visit its location or witness it firsthand. This image allows us to connect with history and embrace our fascination with archaeology while celebrating the beauty found within ancient Greek culture.
