EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Cypriot Barrel jug from the 7th-6th century, now housed in the prestigious Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK. The intricate pottery piece depicts an exquisite scene of birds and deer, beautifully capturing the essence of nature's harmony. The craftsmanship displayed on this ancient artifact is truly awe-inspiring. Every detail has been meticulously carved into the clay surface, showcasing the skill and artistry of its Cypriot creator. The delicate handle adds a touch of elegance to this vessel, making it not only functional but also visually striking. As we delve into its history, we are transported back in time to a prehistoric era where oil was stored in such vessels. This particular jar stands out due to its orientalizing style and free field design – characteristics that make it unique among other similar artifacts. The presence of animals on this jug further enhances its appeal. Birds gracefully perched amidst flourishing foliage create a sense of serenity and tranquility while deer roam freely across the landscape depicted on this ceramic masterpiece. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' exceptional photography skills, we can now appreciate every intricate detail captured within this photograph print. It allows us to marvel at both the artistic brilliance behind this ancient creation as well as our own ability to preserve and cherish such cultural treasures for generations to come.
