1100s Byzantium Diameter Foliage Hawk Rabbit
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of art from the 12th century Byzantium era. Titled "Deep Plate with Hawk, Rabbit, and Foliage" this sgraffito earthenware plate is truly a testament to the skill and creativity of its creator. The intricate design features a majestic hawk soaring above a delicate rabbit amidst lush foliage. Measuring at 3.9 x 24 cm (1 9/16 x 9 7/16 in. ), this deep plate exemplifies the attention to detail that was characteristic of Byzantine craftsmanship. The technique used, known as sgraffito, involves scratching through layers of colored slip to reveal contrasting colors beneath. The composition itself is both harmonious and dynamic, capturing the essence of nature's beauty while showcasing the artist's mastery over their medium. The juxtaposition of strength represented by the hawk and vulnerability embodied by the rabbit creates an intriguing narrative within this small yet impactful artwork. As we gaze upon this ancient artifact captured in stunning detail through photography, we are transported back in time to an era where such plates were not only functional but also cherished works of art. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only its aesthetic qualities but also serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire generations even today.
