EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate CAMUNI hunting scene, depicted through petroglyphs on Permian sandstone. The image captures the essence of an Iron Age/Bronze-5th/1st millennium BC UNESCO-recognized site, known as the National Park of Rock Engravings. Elena Piccini skillfully photographed this remarkable artwork in August 2016 at Naquane, located in Valle Camonica. The photograph provides a glimpse into ancient times, where scutum shields and weapons were used by skilled hunters to pursue their prey. The detailed engravings depict a hunter armed with a lance, poised to strike down his target. The animals portrayed in this rock art add life and movement to the scene. Situated in Lombardy's Brescia province, this archaeological area is renowned for its rich rock archaeology and serves as a museum of prehistoric culture. These petroglyphs offer valuable insights into the lives and customs of the peoples of ancient Italy. The significance of this World Heritage Site cannot be overstated; it represents an important piece of Indo-European civilization's history. The exquisite craftsmanship displayed through these rock engravings highlights Italy's profound archaeological heritage. Elena Piccini's expert photography allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the historical importance preserved within these petroglyphs.
