EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Statue of the god Pan, dating back to the 2nd century AD. The statue, housed in the Archaeological Museum of Heraklion in Crete, Greece, is a testament to Roman artistry and mythology. Pan, known as the god of wild nature and rustic music, stands tall with his bearded visage and commanding presence. As a companion to nymphs and protector of shepherds and flocks, he embodies both strength and harmony within nature. The image captures Pan's mythical essence perfectly - an amalgamation of human and animal features. His goat-like legs symbolize his connection to wildlife while his divine countenance exudes power. This representation reflects ancient Greek culture's reverence for deities that governed various aspects of life. The photograph also hints at the rich tapestry of European history by featuring elements such as ancient Rome's influence on Greek civilization. It serves as a reminder that these mythological figures were not just fictional characters but held deep significance in religious practices during antiquity. Frank Buffetrille's skillful photography brings this extraordinary sculpture to life once again. Through this artwork, viewers are transported back in time to appreciate both its artistic beauty and cultural importance.
