EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the sculpture of Selim, brother of the King of Mari in Syria, dating back to the 3rd millennium BC. Created by Sumerian artists, this masterpiece is housed in the National Museum in Damascus, Syria. The image captures every intricate detail of this ancient artwork. Selim's sculpted figure exudes power and authority, reflecting his royal lineage. His strong masculine features are complemented by an aura of virility that emanates from him. The artist skillfully captures not only Selim's regal presence but also his connection with nature as he stands alongside various animals. This photograph transports us back to Mesopotamia during a time when civilization was flourishing. It serves as a window into the rich history and cultural heritage of Iraq and its Arab civilization. Additionally, it offers glimpses into African influences on art during that era. The expertly carved sculpture is a testament to Sumerian artistry and craftsmanship. Each stroke brings life to Selim's portrait, making it feel almost lifelike despite its age. As we admire this remarkable piece from antiquity, we are reminded of how art has always been a medium for storytelling and preserving history. This photograph allows us to appreciate both the artistic beauty and historical significance encapsulated within this single object - an enduring symbol of human creativity throughout time.
