EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing mosaic artwork titled "A nymph, from the House of Jason Magnus". Created by an unknown Roman artist, this masterpiece can be found in the Cyrene Museum in Cyrene, Libya. The photograph was skillfully captured by Stephen Coyne and is now out of copyright. In this enchanting scene, we see a beautiful nymph gracefully riding on horseback. Her nude form blends harmoniously with the natural surroundings as she confidently guides her magnificent steed through lush landscapes. The intricate details of the mosaic bring life to both the nymph and her majestic companion. The image evokes a sense of freedom and connection with nature. It reminds us of the timeless bond between humans and animals, highlighting horses' significance throughout history as trusted companions for various purposes – whether it be transportation or sport. The juxtaposition of nudity and equestrianism adds an element of sensuality to this artwork. It symbolizes not only physical prowess but also celebrates human vulnerability when engaging in such activities. Stephen Coyne's impeccable photography allows us to appreciate every delicate brushstroke within this ancient mosaic. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece, we are transported back in time to witness the beauty that once adorned Roman homes like that belonging to Jason Magnus himself.
