Originating from Vigna Amendola, Italy, during the Roman civilization in the 2nd century A. D. , this ancient artifact holds immense significance. Against a striking black background, this studio shot captures every intricate detail of the carving with utmost clarity. The simplicity and elegance of this piece are truly awe-inspiring.

It reminds us of the interconnectedness between civilizations and how ideas were shared and adapted across borders. As we gaze upon this single object frozen in time, we cannot help but feel connected to our past and reflect on the fragility of life itself.
