EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a "Fragment of a Bowl" dating back to the mid 12th-early 13th century. Crafted by an unknown creator, this artifact is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient Anatolia and the Byzantine Empire. The bowl fragment, displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago's Arts of the Ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium collection, offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Asia Minor. Its ceramic sgraffito design, adorned with vibrant colors and intricate patterns, reflects the artistic mastery prevalent during that era. As we marvel at this ancient treasure, we are transported back in time to Corinthian Greece where such vessels were used for various purposes. This particular piece was likely part of someone's homeware or tableware collection - serving as both functional crockery and an expression of their refined taste. Now preserved as an important historical artifact, this fragment invites us to appreciate its beauty while contemplating its journey through centuries. It serves as a reminder that even though its original purpose may have been lost over time, its significance remains intact. Through exhibitions like these, we gain insight into different cultures and civilizations that have shaped our world today. This photograph captures not only an extraordinary work of art but also sparks curiosity about our shared human history.
