EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable tombstone, adorned with the exquisite figure of an eagle. Crafted from limestone by Greek artisans, this ancient masterpiece hails from the Belkis-Zeugma region in Turkey. The intricate details and expert craftsmanship are evident in every curve and contour of this high relief sculpture. The majestic eagle, a symbol of strength and freedom, stands tall on top of the tombstone, its wings gracefully outstretched as if ready to take flight. Its piercing gaze seems to penetrate through time itself, leaving viewers captivated by its enigmatic presence. As a funerary marker, this tombstone serves as a poignant reminder of the lives that once were. It pays homage to those who have passed on while celebrating their spirit through artistry and symbolism. The contrasting textures created by the delicate carving against the ruggedness of limestone add depth and character to this piece. The play between light and shadow further enhances its visual impact, casting an ethereal glow upon each intricately carved feather. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this timeless artwork in all its glory through their impeccable photography skills. This print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic prowess behind such creations but also provides us with a glimpse into history - reminding us that even in death, beauty can endure for centuries to come.
