EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient civilization - a fur jacket crafted from sheep leather. Discovered in the Oglahty mountains of Siberia, this tomb relic dates back to the 1st Century B. C. , offering us a glimpse into the fashion and craftsmanship of that era. Currently housed in London's prestigious British Museum, this Scythian winter coat is an exquisite example of art and craft. The studio shot captures every intricate detail of this historical parka, highlighting its horizontal design and single object focus against a serene grey background. The absence of people allows us to solely appreciate the beauty and significance of this archaeological find. With its luxurious fur lining and expert tailoring, it's evident that warmth and style were equally valued by the Tashtyk culture who created it. This leather masterpiece not only served as protection against harsh winters but also reflected their artistic sensibilities. As we admire this image, let our imagination transport us back in time to witness how ancient civilizations embraced fashion as both functional necessity and artistic expression. Let us marvel at the skillful hands that carefully stitched together each piece of sheep leather to create such an enduring symbol of their heritage
