EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) takes us back to ancient Greece, where competition and speed were revered qualities in the military. The bas-relief depicts two men on galloping horses, showcasing the prowess of Athenian cavalry. The second man stands out with his distinctive attire - a panther skin draped over his cloak. These components of Thracian dress were adopted by the Athenian cavalry, symbolizing their strength and ferocity on the battlefield. A closer look reveals an intriguing contrast between the two horses' manes. The right horse's mane appears unruly, flowing freely as it charges forward with untamed energy. In stark contrast, the left horse's mane is carefully combed and groomed, reflecting meticulous attention to detail. This studio shot captures not only a moment frozen in time but also echoes of an entire era. It transports us to a distant past when male likeness was celebrated through human representation and animal symbolism held great significance. As we gaze at this image devoid of people yet rich in historical context, we are reminded of ancient Greece's formidable army soldiers who rode into battle atop these majestic creatures. Archaeology allows us to delve into such remnants from our past and uncover stories that would otherwise be lost to time. Let this print serve as a window into ancient Greek culture – a testament to their military might and unwavering spirit that continues to captivate our imagination today.
