EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Lucanian fresco from the 4th century BC, depicting a fierce warrior armed with a spear and shield. The artwork originates from the Tomb of the Horseman, located in Paestum, Italy, and is currently housed in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Paestum. The ancient painting offers us a glimpse into the rich civilization of this time period. The skillful use of paint brings to life an armored fighter ready for battle. With his determined expression and powerful stance, he embodies strength and courage. The intricate details on both his lance and buckler highlight the craftsmanship of the Lucanian School during this era. Every stroke of paint adds depth to his armor, emphasizing its protective qualities. This warrior's presence serves as a testament to human resilience throughout history. As we admire this piece of art, we are transported back in time to witness an essential aspect of ancient society – warfare. It reminds us that conflict has always been part of our collective story as humans. Luisa Ricciarini expertly captures this masterpiece through her lens, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even if we cannot see it firsthand at Museo nazionale archeologico in Paestum today. Her photograph preserves not only an individual work but also contributes to our understanding and appreciation for art across civilizations throughout time.
