EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Greek civilization - a bronze sculptural group depicting two horses in the distinctive geometric style. Originating from Olympia, Greece, this ancient masterpiece dates back to the 8th century BC and offers a glimpse into the artistic prowess of that era. The photograph captures the intricate details of these horse figurines with great precision. The studio shot allows us to appreciate their vertical composition and exquisite craftsmanship. These sculptures were created during the geometric period, characterized by its emphasis on simple shapes and patterns. As we delve into Greek culture through this image, we are transported back in time to witness how animals were represented artistically in ancient Greece. The horses' graceful forms exude strength and elegance, while their suckling pose adds an endearing touch. Olympia holds immense historical significance as it was home to one of the most renowned sanctuaries in ancient Greece - dedicated primarily to Zeus, king of gods. This sculpture likely played a role within this sacred space or served as an offering for divine favor. Through this print from Universal Images Group (UIG), we have been granted access to a tangible piece of history that encapsulates both artistry and cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder of the rich legacy left behind by Aegean civilizations and invites us to marvel at their extraordinary achievements even today.
