EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a significant artifact from the Minoan civilization, transporting us back to ancient Greece. The image captures a clay tablet with inscriptions in Linear B, discovered at Haghia Triada and believed to date back to the 15th century BC. With its cracked surface and vertical orientation, this studio shot emphasizes the age and fragility of this archaeological treasure. The tablet's engravements in Linear B, a non-western script, offer invaluable insights into the language and culture of the Minoans. As we gaze upon this single object against a neutral backdrop, we can't help but marvel at its historical significance as both a memorial plaque and an archaeological artifact. Through this photograph, Universal Images Group (UIG) invites us to delve into the mysteries of ancient civilizations that once thrived in the Aegean region. While no people are present in the frame, their presence is felt through these intricate inscriptions that tell stories long forgotten by time. It is important to note that this print should not be used for commercial purposes. Instead, let it serve as a reminder of our shared human history and ignite curiosity about those who came before us – their languages, customs, and remarkable achievements etched onto tablets like these.
