Aegean Civilizations Ancient Greece Archaic Age Chariot Chariot Racing Damaged Driving Incomplete Wheel
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) takes us back in time to the ancient Greek civilization, specifically the 6th century B. C. The image showcases a relief of a racer on his chariot, dating back to 520 B. C. Despite its age, this remarkable piece of art and craft has managed to retain its intricate details and beauty. The photograph captures the essence of chariot racing during that era, depicting a male likeness skillfully maneuvering his chariot with great speed and precision. The damaged wheel adds an element of authenticity, reminding us of the wear and tear these vehicles endured during intense races. Shot in a studio setting, the vertical composition allows for a closer examination of this ancient sculpture. Its incomplete state serves as a reminder that even though centuries have passed since its creation, we are still able to appreciate fragments from our past civilizations. Transporting us back to the Archaic Age in Ancient Greece, this image offers valuable insights into Aegean civilizations' love for sports and competition. It is fascinating how such relics continue to connect us with our ancestors' lives and passions
