Black Background Cracked Craft Damaged Phoenician Punic Stele Archaeological Artifact
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable archaeological artifact from the ancient civilization of Phoenicia. Set against a striking black background, the image captures the essence of history and antiquities. The focal point is a Votive stele dedicated to God Baal Hammon, meticulously crafted by Hanno, son of Adonibal in the 6th century B. C. Despite its age, this masterpiece still exudes an aura of grandeur and power. The intricate carvings on the stele depict human representations that pay homage to this revered deity. However, time has left its mark on this relic as it bears visible cracks and damages. The studio shot emphasizes every detail of this extraordinary piece – from its engravements to its weathered surface. It serves as a poignant reminder of our connection to the past and offers us glimpses into an ancient world filled with rich cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this awe-inspiring work of art, we are transported back in time to Lilibeo in Italy's Sicily region where it was discovered. This votive stele not only symbolizes religious devotion but also represents the skillful craftsmanship prevalent during that era. With no people present in the frame, our focus solely rests on this single object that holds immense historical significance. Through Universal Images Group (UIG), we have been granted access to witness firsthand one of humanity's most treasured artifacts - a testament to mankind's enduring fascination with gods and their worship throughout centuries gone by.
