EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Head of a centaur" a remarkable marble sculpture dating back to the 1st century BC-1st century AD. Created by an anonymous Roman artist during the Tiberian age, this piece is now housed in the Musei Capitolini in Rome, Italy. The photograph, taken by Frank Buffetrille, beautifully captures the intricate details and craftsmanship of this ancient artwork. The head of the centaur, with its strong facial features and flowing beard, exudes power and wisdom. It serves as a testament to both the artistic skill of its creator and the rich mythology that inspired it. Centaurs are mythical creatures from Greek mythology known for their half-human, half-horse bodies. They symbolize strength and untamed nature while embodying elements of paganism and religion prevalent during ancient times. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when mythological figures like centaurs roamed freely through ancient Rome. The sculpture's presence evokes feelings of wonderment and curiosity about our past. Frank Buffetrille's expert photography allows us to appreciate every intricacy of this marvelous work of art. Through his lens, we can explore not only the physical anatomy but also delve into deeper themes such as spirituality and humanity's fascination with fantastical beings. This print is a true treasure for any lover of antiquity or art history enthusiast seeking to bring a touch of ancient mystique into their space.
