This print showcases the Grave Stele of Herophanta and Posideos, an exquisite piece of art from ancient Asia Minor. Crafted around 150 B. C. , this marble stele stands as a testament to the artistic prowess and cultural heritage of its unknown creator. Standing at an impressive height of 151.4 cm (59 5/8 in. ), this grave stele commands attention with its intricate details and delicate craftsmanship. The figures depicted on the stele, presumably Herophanta and Posideos, are beautifully sculpted, capturing their essence for eternity. The smoothness of the marble adds a touch of elegance to this timeless masterpiece.
