This print showcases a mesmerizing view of a relief depicting a winged deity from the palace of King Ashurnasirpal II, dating back to the 9th-7th century BC in Iraq. The Assyrian artwork, known as "divinite ailee" beautifully captures the essence of ancient mythology and archaeological significance. The intricate carving and attention to detail on this piece are truly remarkable. The deity's majestic wings spread wide, symbolizing power and divinity, while their enigmatic expression hints at an otherworldly presence. This relic offers us a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Assyrian civilization.

As we delve into the depths of history through this image, we are transported to an era where gods walked among mortals and palaces stood as grand testaments to human ingenuity. It serves as a reminder that even after centuries have passed, these remnants continue to inspire awe and fascination. Through her lens, Ricciarini immortalizes not only the physical beauty but also the spiritual essence embodied by this relief.
