EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of ancient civilization in Tunisia. The intricate mosaic, dating back to the 3rd century A. D. , depicts an allegory of summer with Ceres, the Roman goddess of agriculture and fertility, harvesting wheat. Standing tall amidst a backdrop of flourishing flora, she holds a bundle of golden wheat in her hands, symbolizing abundance and prosperity. The mosaic is part of the rich history found in Oudna, once known as Uthina during Roman times. It serves as a testament to the advanced artistry and craftsmanship prevalent during that era. Every detail has been meticulously preserved over centuries, allowing us to glimpse into the past and appreciate the skillful workmanship. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness Ceres' important role in ancient agricultural practices. The scene evokes feelings of warmth and vitality associated with summer days spent working under the sun. The photograph's horizontal composition perfectly showcases both Ceres' majestic presence and the lush surroundings that surround her. It offers a non-urban scene that contrasts with our modern world while reminding us of humanity's deep connection to nature throughout history. This artwork reminds us not only of Tunisia's rich heritage but also highlights how art can transcend time by preserving glimpses into our collective pasts.
