EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Quiver Fitting for bow and arrows, discovered in the Chertomlyk burial mound of the Steppe region. Created by Scythian artisans during the 4th century BC, this exquisite piece measures an impressive length of 46.8 cm. Currently housed at the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia, this artifact is now out of copyright. The intricate craftsmanship displayed on this quiver fitting is truly awe-inspiring. The delicate relief work depicts various animals and figures, meticulously carved into the metal surface with great precision and skill. Every detail has been carefully considered to create a decorative masterpiece that exudes ornate beauty. This print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic talent of ancient civilizations but also their deep connection with nature and their surroundings. The presence of animal motifs suggests a reverence for wildlife and perhaps even a spiritual significance attached to these creatures. As we gaze upon this stunning relic from centuries past, we are transported back in time to an era where craftsmanship was highly valued and every object held meaning beyond its mere functionality. This photograph serves as a reminder of our shared human history and offers us an opportunity to marvel at the ingenuity and creativity that have shaped our world throughout millennia.
