EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable marble sarcophagus from the Roman civilization in 3rd century A. D. Located in Konya, Turkey, this ancient relic is adorned with an intricately carved relief depicting a heartwarming scene. The deceased figure tenderly reads to his wife and daughter, symbolizing the eternal bond of love and family. Crafted with exceptional skill and attention to detail, this bas-relief offers a glimpse into the artistic mastery of ancient civilizations. The vertical composition emphasizes the grandeur of this archaeological artifact, while the smooth marble surface adds an air of elegance and timelessness. The absence of human figures in the frame invites viewers to reflect on the past and contemplate religious offerings made during that era. This exquisite piece represents not only a historical treasure but also serves as a testament to human creativity throughout imperial times. As we gaze upon this image captured by Universal Images Group (UIG), we are transported back in time, marveling at the craftsmanship that has survived through centuries. It reminds us of our shared heritage and deepens our appreciation for art's ability to transcend time itself.
