EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient art, the Krater from the Trebeniste Necropolis in Lake Ohrid, Macedonia. Created by Greek artisans during the 6th century BC, this bronze masterpiece is now housed in the Narodni Muzej in Belgrade, Serbia. The intricate details captured in this photograph highlight the skill and craftsmanship of its creators. The krater stands tall on a sturdy base adorned with delicate wings and claw-like feet. Its surface is embellished with various mythical creatures and symbols that tell stories of ancient Greek mythology. One cannot help but be drawn to the female figure depicted on this krater. With cloven wings and hooves resembling those of a harpy or siren, she exudes an air of mystery and power. Her presence adds an element of intrigue to this already fascinating artwork. The vessel itself serves as both functional pottery and an artistic expression. Used for mixing wine and water during symposiums, it was also considered a symbol of status among ancient Greeks. Through this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness the beauty and significance of ancient Greek culture. It reminds us that art has always been a powerful medium for storytelling and preserving history across generations.
