EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable sarcophagus from the 1st-4th century AD, now housed in the Musei Capitolini in Rome, Italy. The intricate artwork depicts Meleager, a renowned warrior and hero of ancient Greece, engaged in a fierce battle with the Calydonian boar before Artemis, the goddess of hunting. The scene is beautifully captured on this sarcophagus lid, where a reclining couple can also be seen. Meleager's bravery and skill are evident as he wields his spear against the formidable wild boar while being watched over by Artemis herself. This portrayal reflects both the mythological significance of these figures and their importance within ancient Greek culture. The sculpture is rich in detail and symbolism, showcasing elements such as nudity that were common in ancient art to convey strength and vulnerability simultaneously. The bas-relief technique used adds depth to the composition and brings life to each character depicted. As we admire this stunning piece of antiquity through Frank Buffetrille's lens, we are transported back to an era when myths intertwined with daily life. It serves as a reminder of how art has always been deeply connected to religion, storytelling, and human expression throughout history. Overall, this print offers us an opportunity to appreciate not only the craftsmanship but also the cultural significance behind this extraordinary work of art from ancient Rome.
