EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable diorite statue of the bull-deity Apis, originating from Rome during the Egyptian civilization's Ptolemaic Period in the 2nd century b. C. Standing at full length, this ancient artifact exudes an air of majesty and power. The intricately carved sculpture depicts a horned bull, symbolizing strength and fertility, with exquisite attention to detail evident in every curve and contour. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are transported back in time to an era when cattle held great significance in ancient societies. This artwork serves as a testament to the deep spirituality and animal themes that permeated their beliefs. The solitary presence of this single object evokes a sense of reverence for the past and reminds us of our connection to ancient civilizations. The choice of diorite as the medium for this sculpture further emphasizes its importance. Diorite was highly valued by artisans due to its durability and ability to withstand the test of time. Its smooth texture adds an extra layer of sophistication to this already impressive piece. Displayed indoors under natural daylight, every inch of this artful creation is illuminated, allowing us to appreciate its rich history even more profoundly. As we contemplate its existence today as an archaeological artifact preserved by Universal Images Group (UIG), we are reminded once again that art has always been a powerful means through which humanity expresses itself across generations.
