EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable wall-painting of the renowned Greek philosopher, Socrates. Created in the 2nd century BC, this artwork was discovered in Ephesus, Turkey and is now proudly displayed at Selfuk in the Archaeological Museums collection. Socrates, who lived from 469 to 399 BC, is depicted here with great detail and precision. The image captures a man of wisdom and intellect, his face reflecting deep contemplation. The artist skillfully portrays Socrates' distinctive features - his strong jawline, prominent nose, and furrowed brow - conveying both his age and wisdom. The colors used in this painting have been preserved remarkably well over time; they add vibrancy to the scene while also evoking a sense of antiquity. As one gazes upon this ancient masterpiece, it transports us back to Ancient Greece during the Aegean period. It serves as a visual representation of an era that greatly influenced Western philosophy and thought. Displayed within Selcuk's archaeological museum near Izmir today, this artifact stands as a testament to human curiosity about life's fundamental questions. Its presence reminds us of our enduring fascination with knowledge-seeking and intellectual exploration. With its historical significance combined with artistic excellence captured by photographer CM Dixon (Mike Dixon), this print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both ancient artistry and philosophical legacy simultaneously.
