EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricately sculpted head of a bearded man from a limestone bust, originating from the ancient Sanctuary of Apollo at Pyla in Cyprus. Dated back to the early 5th century BC, this masterpiece of Cypriot art is a testament to the devotion and artistic prowess of the era. The man's curly, well-groomed beard and the laurel wreath encircling his head are symbols of his priesthood or high status in ancient Greek religion. His features exhibit a serene smile, suggesting a wise and peaceful demeanor. The upper part of the bust, now lost, would have completed the portrait of this revered worshipper of Apollo. This historical artifact, currently housed in the British Museum in London, England, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of ancient civilizations and the enduring allure of classical art.
