EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art from ancient times - a terracotta scent-bottle in the shape of a woman's bust. Created in Rhodes and discovered in Vulci, Italy, this artifact now resides within the prestigious collection of the British Museum. The delicate craftsmanship is evident as every detail of the female face has been meticulously sculpted. The serene expression on her visage exudes an air of grace and beauty that transcends time. Adorned with a stunning necklace, this sculpture highlights the intricate jewelry worn by women during that era. The vibrant colors used to paint this terracotta masterpiece bring it to life, adding depth and dimension to its form. Its origins can be traced back to Greece, reflecting the rich artistic heritage of the Aegean region. As we gaze upon this exquisite perfume bottle, we are transported back in time, imagining how it was once filled with fragrant scents that would have captivated those who encountered it. This artifact not only serves as a testament to ancient Greek culture but also offers us insight into their appreciation for both aesthetics and practicality.
