EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite piece of Oriental antiquity: the idol figurine of Fecondite. Crafted from terracotta, this ancient artifact originates from Cyprus and dates back to the Bronze Age, specifically between 2200-2000 BC. Currently housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, it stands as a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of this era. The intricately carved figurine depicts Fecondite, a symbol of fertility and abundance in ancient mythology. Its delicate features and meticulous craftsmanship highlight the skill and artistry of its creator. As we gaze upon this relic from centuries past, we are transported back to a time when paganism was prevalent and religion played a vital role in society. The idol figurine serves as a window into prehistoric art and archaeology, offering us valuable insights into the beliefs and rituals of our ancestors. It reminds us that even thousands of years ago, humans sought meaning through their connection with higher powers. Luisa Ricciarini's masterful capture allows us to appreciate every detail of this remarkable artifact while preserving its historical value for generations to come. Through her lens, she brings forth not just an image but also a story—a story that speaks volumes about our shared human heritage.
