EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient times - a bronze coin of the Parthian King Gondophares. Believed to be from the 1st century, this coin offers us a glimpse into the rich history and cultural exchange between Parthia and north-west India. The image is expertly captured in a studio setting with a black background, allowing every intricate detail of the coin to stand out. The warm color tones of bronze add depth and character to this historical treasure. Gondophares, an illustrious monarch whose name was shared by several kings, left his mark on Indian currency with this very coin. It symbolizes not only his reign but also serves as evidence of economic prosperity during that era. As we admire this royal artifact, we are transported back in time to Hindoostan (India), where people would have used these coins for their daily transactions. Its significance extends beyond its monetary value; it represents power, sovereignty, and the legacy of Gondophares himself. Thanks to photographer CM Dixon's skillful lens work and Mike Dixon's expertise in capturing heritage images, we can now appreciate this extraordinary piece of history up close. This print is not just an object; it is an invitation to explore centuries-old stories etched onto its surface - tales that connect us with our past and remind us of the enduring influence of great civilizations like Parthia and India.
