EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph print showcases the ancient goddess Astarte, revered in both Middle Eastern and Egyptian religions. The artwork, created by the Spanish School in the 19th century, is a stunning illustration for Jose Coroleu's book "Las Supersticiones De La Humanidad" (1881). The exceptional quality of this chromolithograph highlights every intricate detail of Astarte's divine presence. In this mesmerizing scene, we see Astarte standing on a shoreline at sunset or sunrise, her naked form exuding power and grace. As she gazes out towards the sea, birds soar above her head, symbolizing freedom and spirituality. This depiction evokes a sense of mysticism and awe as we witness mankind's connection to ancient mythology. Astarte was worshipped as a goddess associated with fertility, love, war, and beauty. Her influence extended across various cultures including Phoenician and Mesopotamian civilizations. As one of the most significant deities in these regions' religious practices, Astarte represented humanity's deep-rooted belief in supernatural powers. The temple visible in the background further emphasizes the sacredness attributed to Astarte. It serves as a reminder of mankind's devotion to their gods throughout history. This print from Fine Art Finder not only captures an exquisite artistic representation but also invites us to contemplate our ancestors' beliefs and superstitions that shaped their understanding of divinity.
