This print captures the essence of a female idol from the ancient Cycladic civilization. Crafted between 3200 and 2000 BC, this schematic figurine is made of white marble with delicate ochre inlays, showcasing the remarkable artistry of its time. The statuette stands at an impressive height of 65 cm, radiating elegance and grace. Its smooth curves and minimalist design highlight the Cycladic aesthetic that has fascinated archaeologists and art enthusiasts for centuries. Housed in the National Archaeological Museum in Athens, Greece, this artifact offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Cyclades islands. The attention to detail in this carving is truly remarkable, as every line and contour tells a story about ancient Greek society. Photographer Luisa Ricciarini expertly captures the beauty and significance of this piece through her lens. Her composition allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical importance. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back thousands of years to a time when such idols held great meaning within their society.
