EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - an Earthenware Jug painted with Blue and Turquoise, originating from 9th century Iraq during the Abbasid Period. The vibrant hues of blue and turquoise beautifully adorn this ancient artifact, highlighting the exquisite craftsmanship of its time. The intricate overglaze-painted design on the jug is a testament to the artistic skill and attention to detail prevalent in Basra, Iraq during this era. With a diameter of 6.8 cm at its mouth and an overall size of 8.9 cm, this small yet significant object offers us a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage that flourished centuries ago. As we admire this earthenware jug, we can't help but imagine how it was once used - perhaps as a vessel for storing precious liquids or as an ornamental piece adorning someone's home. Its timeless beauty transcends time and space, connecting us to those who lived in ancient Iraq centuries ago. The Liszt Collection has done an exceptional job capturing every intricate detail in this photo print, allowing us to appreciate the artistry behind this historical artifact without commercial intent.
