This print showcases a stunning mural frieze found in the Tomb of the Lionesses (Tomba delle Leonesse) in Tarquinia, Italy. Dating back to the 6th century BC, this Etruscan burial chamber is adorned with intricate artwork that has stood the test of time. The image depicts an array of flying fish, also known as dolphins, gracefully soaring over sea waves. Accompanying them are wild ducks gliding through the air. The scene is further enhanced by a beautifully crafted palmette and lotus band positioned above. Originally painted with watercolors by L. Cartocci, this particular photograph was featured in "An Encyclopaedia of Colour Decoration from the Earliest Times to the Middle of the XIXth Century" accompanied by explanatory text written by Helmuth Bossert. Published in Berlin in 1928 by Ernst Wasmuth Ltd. , it offers a glimpse into ancient color decoration techniques and designs. The combination of aquatic life and floral elements creates a harmonious composition that speaks to both nature's beauty and artistic expression. This archaeological treasure not only provides insights into Etruscan culture but also serves as a testament to their mastery of decorative arts.
