EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the ancient world, specifically to The National Archaeological Museum in Naples. Standing proudly within its marble glory is the magnificent Statue of Iside, a masterpiece of Roman Art. This exquisite sculpture showcases the rich artistic heritage and cultural significance of Greece and Europe during ancient civilization. Dating back to the 1st century BC - 1st century AD, this remarkable artwork captures Iside, an Egyptian divinity from the Osiris cycle of mythology. With her striking female portrait and divine presence, she holds a sistrum—an instrument or document associated with music—in her hand. Dressed in elaborate costume and fashion typical of that period, she exudes elegance and grace. The craftsmanship evident in every detail of this statue is truly awe-inspiring. From the intricate carvings on her clothing to the delicate features on her face, it is clear that this work was created by skilled hands with immense talent. As we gaze upon this photograph taken between 1915-1920 by Alinari Fratelli—a renowned name synonymous with capturing historical treasures—we are reminded of how art can transcend time. It allows us to connect with our past while appreciating its beauty in our present day. This image serves as a testament not only to the enduring legacy of Greek art but also to our fascination with ancient civilizations. It invites us into a world where gods and goddesses were worshipped fervently, where myths intertwined with reality, and where culture thrived against all odds. Let this print serve as a reminder that even though centuries have passed since its creation, art continues to inspire wonderment within us all.
