EDITORS COMMENTS
The Pergamon Altar, a grand masterpiece of Hellenistic art, stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of ancient Pergamon in Asia Minor. Commissioned by Eumenes II Soter around 164-156 BC, this monumental marble and limestone structure was created by artists of the renowned Pergamon school. The North Frieze, a stunning high relief, depicts an epic scene from Greek mythology: the Moirai, the goddesses of fate, engaged in a fierce battle against the Giants Agrios and Thoas. With their inexorable bronze clubs, the Moirai mercilessly bring an end to the Giants' rebellion, symbolizing the inevitable triumph of order over chaos. This intricately detailed sculpture, now housed in the Pergamon Museum in Berlin, Germany, offers a captivating glimpse into the mythological age, transporting us back to the grandeur and complexity of ancient civilizations.
