EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of the Bull Head Attachment, dating back to c. 700-600 BC during the Urartian period. Made from bronze and measuring 16.60 cm in height, this artifact is currently housed at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA. The Urartians were contemporaries of the Assyrian civilization and were renowned for their intricate bronze creations. It is believed that they passed on their metalwork traditions to future civilizations such as the Achaemenian Persians. This particular bull head attachment was likely one of four that adorned a massive Urartian bronze cauldron. Placed strategically at cardinal points around its rim, these ornate bull heads added a touch of grandeur and symbolism to an already impressive vessel. The Kingdom of Urartu flourished in what is now northwest Iran, near Lake Urmia. The region's rich history and cultural influences are evident in this remarkable piece of artistry. As we admire this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness not only the skillful craftsmanship but also gain insight into ancient Iranian culture through symbols like bulls - revered animals representing strength and power. Thanks to Fine Art Finder's collaboration with Bridgeman Images, we can appreciate and learn from artifacts like this Bull Head Attachment without any commercial restrictions or limitations on its use.
