EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Greek art: the "Jockey and Horse Jumping an Obstacle" bronze sculpture. Dating back to 150-125 BC, this masterpiece was discovered in Cape Artemision, Greece, and is now housed in the National Archaeological Museum in Athens. The sculpture depicts a skilled rider on horseback elegantly leaping over an obstacle. The attention to detail is awe-inspiring, with every muscle and sinew of both the jockey and horse expertly carved out of bronze. The artist's ability to capture movement and grace in such a static medium is truly impressive. As we gaze upon this ancient artwork, we are transported back to a time when horsemanship was highly revered in Greek culture. It serves as a testament to the skill and bravery of these athletes who competed in equestrian events centuries ago. Luisa Ricciarini's photograph beautifully captures the essence of this magnificent sculpture. Through her lens, we can appreciate not only the craftsmanship but also the timeless beauty that emanates from this work of art. Whether you are an admirer of Greek antiquity or simply appreciate fine artistry, this print will undoubtedly add sophistication and intrigue to any space it graces.
