This print showcases an exquisite Amlash rhyton in the form of a Zebu bull. Crafted from terracotta by the Elamite civilization between 4000-650 BC, this ancient sculpture stands at a height of 22.3 cm. The artwork is currently held in a private collection and has been beautifully captured by photographer eHeini Schneebeli. The intricate details of this Middle Eastern masterpiece are truly awe-inspiring. The skilled craftsmanship is evident in every aspect, from the lifelike depiction of the mammal to its majestic horns that gracefully curve upwards. This horned vessel serves as both a functional object and a work of art, showcasing the ingenuity and creativity prevalent during prehistoric times. The Amlash rhyton not only reflects the artistic prowess of its creators but also offers us insights into their cultural beliefs and practices.
