EDITORS COMMENTS
This bronze mirror, dating back to the mid-5th century B. C. , showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient Greek metalwork. Standing at a height of 40.4 cm, it features a unique support in the form of a draped woman, adding an elegant touch to its design. The intricate details on this piece are truly remarkable. The figure is adorned with a peplos, a traditional Greek garment, and holds a decorative walking stick or cane. Surrounding her are various mythological creatures including erotes (winged gods associated with love), hares, and hounds. These mythical beings add an element of enchantment to the mirror's overall aesthetic. The base of the mirror is ornately decorated with disk-like patterns and what appears to be sirenbirds—a fusion between sirens and birds from Greek mythology—further emphasizing its connection to ancient tales and legends. Displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, this bronze mirror serves as both functional object and artistic masterpiece. Its classical beauty transports viewers back in time to ancient Greece, offering insight into their culture and artistic sensibilities. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artifact today, we can appreciate not only its historical significance but also marvel at the skillful artistry that has stood the test of time for over two millennia.
