EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient art, the "Mirror (LRI741108 Mirror)" from the Greek School in the 4th century BC. With dimensions of 44x23.1 cm, this exquisite artifact is housed at the Museo Nazionale della Siritide in Policoro, Matera, Basilicata, Italy. The mirror itself is a disc with a raised border and a handle featuring a quadrangular outline adorned with intricate figured scenes. Standing between two small Ionic columns is an elegant female figure that takes center stage in this composition. On either side of her are winged spirits, adding an ethereal touch to the scene. At the bottom right corner rests an amphora from Herakleia's southern necropolis tomb 58. Photographed by Luisa Ricciarini and now out of copyright restrictions, this image captures not only the beauty but also the historical significance of this ancient Greek mirror. It serves as both an accessory for personal grooming and as a testament to artistic craftsmanship during antiquity. With its rich history and cultural importance, this bronze mirror provides us with insights into beauty care practices and daily life in ancient Greece. Its presence evokes thoughts about archeology, art history, and our connection to past civilizations. As we admire this magnificent artifact through Luisa Ricciarini's lens, we are reminded of how art transcends time and continues to captivate audiences across generations.
