EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artefact from the Neolithic era - the Neolithic mother-goddess from Crete. Set against a striking black background, this image brings to life the vibrant colors and intricate details of this ancient treasure. The goddess is depicted in a seated position with her legs crossed, exuding an aura of power and grace. As one gazes upon this image, it is impossible not to be captivated by the sheer beauty and significance of this female deity. Known as the mother goddess, she represents fertility, creation, and nurturing qualities that were highly revered in ancient Greek culture. The photograph was taken in a studio setting at the Iraklion Museum in Greece where this precious artifact resides. Its nakedness symbolizes purity and vulnerability while simultaneously emphasizing its divine nature. This Neolithic mother-goddess serves as a testament to the religious beliefs and practices of prehistoric people who worshipped powerful deities such as her. It stands as a tangible link between our modern world and an ancient civilization that thrived thousands of years ago on the island of Crete. Thanks to photographers CM Dixon and Mike Dixon's expertise, we are able to appreciate every intricate detail preserved within this artifact. This print allows us to connect with history on a profound level, reminding us of our shared human experiences across time.
