EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Greek red-figured volute krater from the 4th century BC, depicting a scene from the legendary sack of Troy. The talented Illupersis Painter skillfully captured this momentous event in Greek mythology. In the foreground, we witness Cassandra desperately clinging to the altar of Athena, while Ajax the lesser ominously approaches from the right. To their side, an aged man and a young boy can be seen escaping; possibly King Priam and Hecuba with their son Astynax. Above them all, Dionysus and two Maenads are depicted, adding an ethereal touch to this ancient artwork. The vibrant colors on this artifact bring life to its intricate details and make it truly mesmerizing. This photograph not only highlights the artistic brilliance of ancient Greece but also provides insights into their religious beliefs and cultural heritage. It serves as a testament to how art was used as a medium for storytelling during that era. The image captures both the grandeur of Greek civilization and its mythical tales in one frame. It is a remarkable piece that allows us to delve into history and immerse ourselves in the rich tapestry of ancient Greece's civilisation through visual representation alone.
