EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable display of gold foils, originating from the Anglo-Saxon era between the 4th and 7th centuries. Extracted from the renowned Staffordshire Hoard, these intricate pieces of art exemplify the exquisite craftsmanship prevalent during this time period. The foils are meticulously designed with an ornate touch, reflecting their purpose as both weapons and treasures. Arranged horizontally in a row, each foil depicts a male likeness in bas relief form, emphasizing the warrior culture that defined Anglo-Saxon society. The use of gold leaf adds a luxurious gleam to these masterpieces while creating an enchanting visual effect through repetition.
