EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable ancient coin depicting a double cornucopia, hailing from the Hasmonaean Dynasty that reigned between 135-76 BCE. Specifically, this exquisite piece is attributed to Alexander Jannaeus' reign (103-76 BCE), adding an extra layer of historical significance. The image is captured in stunning detail and vibrant color against a subtle grey background. The coin's intricate design highlights the artistry and craftsmanship of the time period, showcasing the rich heritage of ancient Mediterranean and Byzantine arts. Its bronze composition adds to its allure, representing both currency and finance in this bygone era. Symbolically, the double cornucopia or "horn of plenty" depicted on this coin holds great mythological importance as it represents abundance and prosperity. This imagery resonates with viewers even today, reminding us of our universal desire for wealth and good fortune. With Israel as its country of origin, this artifact provides a glimpse into Judean history during biblical times. It serves as a testament to the cultural richness found within Palestine's past while also shedding light on Israeli heritage art. Displayed prominently in an art gallery or institute such as the Art Institute Chicago's collection on arts from antiquity, this photograph invites viewers to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its historical value. Through close examination of every detail captured in letterbox format, one can marvel at how objects like these coins have survived centuries to tell stories about our shared human history.
