EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the Stone Age, specifically Henley, Oxfordshire in 1926. The image showcases a collection of sharp pointed implements that were unearthed during an archaeological excavation. These prehistoric artifacts are made from flint and exhibit remarkable craftsmanship. The photograph is taken from the third edition of "A Guide to Antiquities of the Stone Age" published by British Museum and Oxford University Press in 1926. It serves as a valuable resource for archaeologists and enthusiasts alike, shedding light on our ancient past. Each tool displayed in this print tells its own story - a testament to human ingenuity and survival skills during an era long gone. From stone axes to various pointed objects, these tools were essential for hunting, gathering, and crafting daily necessities. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and mystery to the image, allowing us to focus solely on the intricate details of each implement. Despite being over a century old now, this photograph continues to captivate viewers with its timeless appeal. As we admire this snapshot into history captured by an unknown creator, we can't help but marvel at how far humanity has come since those primitive times. This print reminds us of our shared ancestry with those who came before us while igniting curiosity about our distant past.
