EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Eros Awakening Psyche: A Roman Marble Sarcophagus Embellished with Garlands, Erotes, and Victories" This marble sarcophagus, dating back to the 3rd century during the Severan period, is a stunning testament to the artistic prowess of ancient Roman artisans. The sarcophagus, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, United States, is adorned with intricate carvings that depict various mythological figures and symbols. The front and sides of the sarcophagus are embellished with garlands of oak leaves, which are held up by two Erotes (cupid figures) and four Victories. The triangular, triangular-lid design adds an elegant touch to the overall composition. Above the garlands, Medusa heads fill the spaces, adding a sense of mystery and intrigue. At the left end of the sarcophagus, Eros, the Greek god of love, is depicted awakening Psyche with an arrow. The tender moment is captured in exquisite detail, with Psyche's delicate features and Eros's gentle expression. The scene represents the mythological tale of Eros and Psyche, where the god of love falls in love with Psyche and ultimately marries her. The sarcophagus's intricate relief sculpture showcases the skill and creativity of the Proconnesian marble carvers during the Roman era. The historical significance of this artifact lies in its ability to transport us back to a time when mythology, art, and culture were deeply intertwined, providing a glimpse into the rich history of the ancient world.
