This print showcases a Stater coin from ancient Greece, dating back to 380-345 BCE. The creator of this remarkable piece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to its historical significance. The focal point of the image is a beautifully depicted horseman, mounted on his majestic steed. The equestrian figure exudes power and grace as he confidently rides through the ancient Greek countryside. The attention to detail in capturing the intricate features of both man and horse is truly remarkable. Set against a subtle grey background, the coin's color comes alive with shades of silver that reflect its metallic nature.
