EDITORS COMMENTS
This fragment of a volute, or spiral decorative element, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the ancient city of Pergamon in Asia Minor, now modern-day Turkey. Dating back to the Hellenistic period between the 2nd and 3rd centuries AD, this architectural detail once adorned a grand building, possibly the temple of Dionysus, located on the terrace of the theater. The Hellenistic style, characterized by its ornate and intricate designs, is evident in the delicate and elegant swirls of the volute. Pergamon was a significant cultural center during the ancient world, renowned for its impressive architecture and scholarly pursuits. The city's proximity to Greece and its influence from Greek culture are reflected in the Hellenistic art that flourished there. This fragment, now part of the esteemed Antikensammlung Berlin (Berlin Antiquities Collection), tells a story of a bygone era and offers a glimpse into the grandeur and sophistication of the ancient world. The volute, a decorative scroll-like element, was a common architectural feature in ancient Greek and Roman architecture, often used to adorn columns and other architectural elements. The intricate design of this fragment speaks to the skill and artistry of the craftsmen who created it, and serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of Greek art on Western civilization.
