EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite terracotta sculpture of Persephone, dating back to around 300 BC. Created by an unknown Greek artist from the 4th century, this masterpiece is now housed in the Archaeological Museum of Aidone della Dea Morgantina in Sicily. The museum itself is a treasure trove of ancient artifacts, including acroliths, busts, vases, metopes, and even health accessories. It offers visitors a glimpse into the rich history and mythology of Morgantina. Persephone stands gracefully draped in her flowing garments, embodying both strength and femininity. As one of the most prominent figures in Greek mythology, she was known as the goddess of the underworld and played a crucial role in shaping ancient beliefs about life and death. The attention to detail on this statuette is remarkable; every fold of her dress seems to come alive under careful observation. The delicate craftsmanship transports viewers back to Ancient Greece and allows them to connect with its mythical past. Giulio Azzarello's skillful capture ensures that this stunning artwork can be appreciated for generations to come. This print serves as a reminder not only of Persephone's significance but also of humanity's enduring fascination with classical art and culture.
