EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "GILGAMESH. Gilgamesh taming two monsters" takes us back to the ancient world of Sumer in the 3rd millennium B. C. The woodcut reproduction beautifully captures a scene from an original Sumerian shell inlay, showcasing the legendary hero Gilgamesh as he fearlessly confronts and subdues two menacing monsters. Gilgamesh, known for his divine right and heroic exploits, stands tall with a majestic beard that symbolizes wisdom and power during this Bronze Age era. His muscular physique exudes strength and determination as he bravely faces these formidable creatures. The intricate details of the woodcut highlight every aspect of this enthralling scene - from the horned monsters' fierce expressions to Gilgamesh's commanding presence. This artwork not only serves as entertainment but also offers a glimpse into the mythological tales that were revered by men during those ancient times. As we admire this print, we are transported to an age where heroes roamed mythical lands, battling monstrous adversaries. It is a testament to humanity's fascination with legends and our eternal quest for triumph over adversity.
