EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art called "Pyx Women Christ Tomb 500s Eastern Mediterranean" from the Artokoloro collection. The photograph captures an exquisite Byzantine ivory, featuring an overall lid measuring 4 1/4 x 5 3/4 inches (108 x 127 cm). The artwork depicts a scene from the Gospel of Luke (24:1-10), where a group of women, including Mary Magdalene, approach the empty tomb of Jesus Christ. In this image, three women are portrayed in an orant prayer pose while standing near the tomb. Two of them swing censers as they approach the side of a domed building. What makes this artwork even more intriguing is its attention to detail - tied back curtains reveal an altar inside the building. This could be interpreted as a reference to religious rituals and practices during that time period. The composition and craftsmanship displayed in this ivory carving are truly awe-inspiring. It serves as both a testament to the artistic skill prevalent in the Eastern Mediterranean during the 500s and as a visual representation of one of Christianity's most significant moments - Christ's resurrection. Art enthusiasts and history buffs alike will find themselves captivated by this stunning depiction that encapsulates both religious devotion and artistic excellence.
