EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient Greece - the Gold stater of Pyrrhus of Epirus, dating back to the 3rd century BC. This exquisite coin bears the head of Athena, the revered goddess of wisdom and warfare, facing right. Issued from Pyrrhus' capital at Ambracia, this gold stater holds immense historical significance. Pyrrhus of Epirus is renowned for his military prowess and strategic victories in battle. Interestingly, it is from him that we derive the phrase "a Phyrric victory" which refers to a win that comes at such a great cost that it may not be worth celebrating. The presence of Athena's profile on this coin highlights her importance as both a deity and symbolizes protection during times of war. The intricate details on this coin are truly mesmerizing - from Athena's majestic helmet to her regal dress. Its golden hue adds an aura of opulence and power to this ancient currency. As we gaze upon this print by CM Dixon, we are transported back in time to an era where gods and goddesses played significant roles in people's lives. It serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and the enduring legacy left behind by civilizations long gone.
