EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Celtic god Cernunnos, immortalized in a French-Roman sculpture discovered within the foundations of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. Dating back to ancient times, this remarkable artwork is a testament to the rich history and cultural fusion that has shaped our world. Cernunnos, known for his association with nature and fertility, stands tall with an aura of divine power. His imposing figure is adorned with intricate engravings and symbols that speak volumes about his significance in polytheistic beliefs. The artist skillfully captures every detail of this gallo roman deity - from his magnificent horns symbolizing strength and virility to his striking bearded face exuding wisdom. The creature-like features of Cernunnos are beautifully depicted, emphasizing both his connection to animals and the mystical realm he represents. With earrings adorning his ears, he exudes an air of regality while simultaneously embodying the untamed spirit of paganism. Accompanied by text detailing its historical context, this lithograph transports us back in time to witness the awe-inspiring presence of Cernunnos himself. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece from Les Arts au Moyen Age published in 1873, we can't help but marvel at how art has preserved not only religious beliefs but also glimpses into forgotten civilizations. This photograph serves as a reminder that even centuries later, these ancient deities continue to captivate our imagination and inspire us through their enduring legacy.
