EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable replica of the Corbridge Lanx, an exquisite rectangular Roman silver platter. Located in the CORBRIDGE Roman Town Museum in Northumberland, this stunning piece depicts three prominent deities from ancient mythology: Apollo, Artemis, and Athena. The original lanx was discovered back in 1735 and is currently housed at the prestigious British Museum.
The intricately designed raised rim of this replica is adorned with a mesmerizing running vine-scroll pattern that adds depth and texture to the artwork. Serving as a frame for the central picture, it beautifully encapsulates the divine scene portrayed on the platter's surface.
At its heart lies Apollo standing before an entrance to a sacred shrine. His presence exudes power and grace as he gazes outwards with an air of mystique. On his left side enters his sister Artemis, emanating an aura of strength and independence. Completing this divine trio is Athena, another goddess revered for her wisdom and strategic prowess.
Peter Williams' masterful photography captures every intricate detail of this extraordinary artifact. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to witness these mythical figures frozen in silver forever.
As we admire this photo print, we cannot help but be awestruck by both its historical significance and artistic brilliance. It serves as a testament to human creativity throughout different eras while also reminding us of our enduring fascination with ancient legends and gods.
In preserving such treasures through visual documentation like Peter Williams' work here, Historic England ensures that future generations can continue to appreciate these cultural relics long after they have been consigned to museum collections.
