EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a rare and enigmatic ancient artifact: Two Addorsed Tree Dryads, dated between 50 B.C. and A.D. 25. The origin of this intricately carved sandstone sculpture remains a mystery, as the creator remains unknown. However, it is believed to have originated from South or Southeast Asia, possibly from India or Hindustan. Addorsed means the figures are placed back to back, and in this piece, two female tree dryads are depicted in this position. Dryads are mythological beings from Greek and Roman mythology, often depicted as nymphs who reside in trees. In this sculpture, the dryads are portrayed as nude, with their slender bodies adorned only with intricate jewelry and their long, flowing hair cascading down their backs. Their bodies are expertly carved, with delicate features and graceful curves, suggesting a deep understanding of the human form. Each figure holds one hand out in front of them, as if in a gesture of greeting or protection. The trees they are associated with are also intricately carved, with leaves and branches extending from their backs, creating a seamless connection between the figures and their natural environment. This sculpture is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the ancient world and the enduring power of mythology to inspire and captivate. It is now part of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's collection, where it continues to intrigue and inspire visitors from around the world.
