EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the early 6th century in Ravenna, Italy. The image showcases a copy of a mosaic found in the Basilica of Saint Apollinare Nuovo, depicting ships at Classis. As we gaze upon this ancient artwork, we are reminded of the rich history and cultural significance that surrounds it. The mosaic itself is a testament to the Byzantine Empire's influence on art and Christianity during the Dark Ages. Its intricate details and vibrant colors capture our attention, drawing us into an era long gone but not forgotten. In this scene, ships gracefully navigate through calm waters, symbolizing both transportation and maritime trade that were vital to Ravenna's prosperity at the time. These vessels serve as a reminder of how interconnected civilizations were even centuries ago. As we explore every corner of this masterpiece, we can't help but marvel at its preservation throughout medieval times. It stands as a testament to human ingenuity and artistic skill that has endured for over a millennium. This print from Granger Art on Demand allows us to bring home a piece of history - one that tells stories of empires rising and falling, faith flourishing amidst uncertainty, and humanity's eternal fascination with capturing beauty through art.
