EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a silver relief medallion that bears the exquisite image of Aphrodite and Eros. Crafted in Taranto, South Italy, this remarkable piece features intricate gilding and depicts the goddess of love at her toilet, accompanied by an attendant and her mischievous son, Eros. The medallion is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Italy, showcasing exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail. Its semi-naked portrayal of Aphrodite adds an element of sensuality while staying true to Greek mythology's depiction of the goddess. Aphrodite, known as the epitome of beauty and desire in ancient Greek culture, is depicted here in all her glory. Her divine presence is enhanced by the inclusion of Eros, symbolizing both love and passion. This stunning medallion not only serves as a work of art but also holds religious significance. It represents devotion towards Aphrodite as a deity and reflects on themes related to hygiene and health during ancient times. As we admire this masterpiece captured through CM Dixon's lens, we are transported back in time to witness the splendorous world where mythological figures came alive through sculpture. This photograph stands as a reminder that even after centuries have passed since its creation, art continues to inspire awe with its ability to preserve history for generations to come.
