EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a beautifully decorated sherd depicting a horseman, believed to be of Iranian origin. The intricate design is painted on pottery and is currently housed in the prestigious Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK. The sherd possibly originates from the area of Suse, an ancient city located in present-day Iran. Its exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail suggest that it was created during prehistoric times by skilled artisans. The image captures the essence of an archaeological find, offering us a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Iran. It evokes a sense of wonder as we imagine the horseman's story: perhaps he was partaking in a hunting expedition or engaged in some other significant activity. The ceramic piece holds immense value for archaeologists and historians alike, shedding light on ancient civilizations and their artistic expressions. This photograph allows us to appreciate its beauty up close while also acknowledging its historical significance. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured this momentous artifact through their lens, preserving it for future generations to admire and study. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of our connection to past civilizations and how art serves as a timeless bridge between cultures across time and space.
