EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable engraving known as the CAMUNI circular figure of solar symbol and human figures. Created using an ancient technique called "a hammer" this artwork was meticulously crafted by tapping the rocky surface of Permian sandstone with either a stone instrument or metal, resulting in small concavities of circular shape. Dating back to the Iron Age/Bronze-5th/1st millennium BC, this extraordinary piece is located within the National Park of Rock Engravings, specifically in Naquane, Valle Camonica. Its historical significance earned it recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. The photographer Elena Piccini skillfully captured this image in August 2016, providing us with a glimpse into the intricate details and symbolism present within this prehistoric masterpiece. The composition beautifully highlights both the solar symbol and human figures engraved on the rock's surface. Through Fototeca Gilardi's lens, we are transported back in time to witness the ingenuity and artistic prowess of our ancestors. This photograph serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with self-expression and connection to celestial forces. As we admire this print from Fine Art Finder, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its ability to bridge past and present through artistry that transcends time.
