EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate detail of an Assyrian Winged Bull at the Pergamom Museum in Berlin. The majestic creature, with its powerful body and commanding presence, is a testament to the rich history and artistry of ancient Assyria. Its muscular form is adorned with a magnificent headdress and a flowing beard that exudes wisdom and strength. Against a striking black background, this artifact stands out as a symbol of power and authority. The meticulous craftsmanship can be seen in every aspect of this sculpture, from the carefully carved feathers on its wings to the expressive features on its face. It serves as a reminder of humanity's ability to create awe-inspiring works of art that transcend time. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era when these mythical creatures were believed to guard sacred spaces. The combination of human and animal characteristics represents both earthly might and divine protection. The photographer, CM Dixon, has skillfully captured not only the physical beauty but also the essence behind this extraordinary piece. Through his lens, we are able to appreciate every curve and contour while contemplating the significance it held for those who lived during ancient Assyria. This print invites us into a world where myth meets reality—a world where stone comes alive with stories untold.
