EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an extraordinary piece of ancient history, the Assyrian winged bull on the site of Nineveh. Taken in the 19th century by an unknown artist, this image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage and archaeological wonders found in Iraq. The majestic bull, with its powerful wings and imposing stature, stands as a symbol of strength and grandeur. The intricate engravings adorning its body speak volumes about the advanced craftsmanship of the Assyrians. This remarkable artifact offers us a glimpse into their sophisticated civilization that thrived centuries ago. Its presence on the site of Nineveh adds another layer of significance, as it was once one of the greatest cities in Mesopotamia. Photographer Leonard de Selva expertly captures every detail and nuance, allowing viewers to appreciate not only the physical beauty but also the historical importance behind this sculpture. The lighting highlights each contour and texture while emphasizing its timeless appeal. As we gaze upon this photograph, our imagination takes flight to ancient times when these magnificent creatures guarded palaces and temples. It serves as a reminder that even after thousands of years have passed, art continues to connect us with our past and inspire awe for human creativity. This print from Fine Art Finder is more than just an image; it is a portal into a world long gone but never forgotten – an homage to Arab civilization's enduring legacy in Middle Eastern history.
