EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the Venus of Sireuil, a Gravettian statuette dating back to 35000-8000 BC. This ancient sculpture depicts a young woman from the Upper Paleolithic period, made of amber calcite and standing at 91mm tall. Despite her headless body and lack of feet, the figure exudes femininity with a marked chest, prominent buttocks, and plump belly - possibly indicating pregnancy.
The positioning of her thighs and knees suggests that she is kneeling in a posture that symbolizes fertility and fecundity. The Venus of Sireuil is a powerful representation of womanhood in prehistoric times, embodying the essence of femininity and motherhood.
Displayed at the National Archaeological Museum of Saint Germain-en-Laye in France, this sculpture is part of the rich tapestry of prehistoric art that provides insight into our ancient ancestors' beliefs and customs. The intricate details captured in this print by Patrice Cartier showcase the beauty and significance of this historic artifact.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back thousands of years to a time when art served as a means to honor women's roles as bearers of life and symbols of fertility. The Venus de Sireuil continues to captivate viewers with its timeless appeal and profound connection to our shared human history.
