In this print from the Universal Images Group (UIG), we are transported back in time to ancient Syria, Damascus. The image showcases a remarkable terracotta sculpture dating back to the 1st century A. D. , now housed in the prestigious Musee du Louvre in Paris, France. The focal point of this photograph is a group of priestesses gracefully riding atop a camel. Their elegant postures and serene expressions suggest their important role within religious rituals during that era. The intricate details of the terracotta sculpture highlight the craftsmanship and artistic talent of its creator. Set against a grey background, this vertical composition allows us to focus solely on these priestesses and their majestic camel companion. It serves as a testament to human creativity and imagination throughout history.
