EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of limestone cut off heads, originating from the Oppidum at Entremont in France during the 3rd century BC. The studio shot beautifully captures the broken sculptures, each depicting a male likeness with intricate details carved into stone. Standing vertically, these four objects form part of an intriguing repetition that sparks curiosity about their significance within Celtic civilization. The craftsmanship displayed in these ancient artworks is truly remarkable, highlighting the skill and artistry of individuals from centuries past. Despite being severed from their original bodies, these sculpted heads exude a sense of mystery and power that transcends time. Dating back to both the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC, these artifacts offer us a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Celtic people. Their symbolic importance and purpose remain open to interpretation as we ponder upon their historical context. In this image captured by Universal Images Group (UIG), there are no people present, allowing us to focus solely on these mesmerizing relics. It serves as a reminder of our connection to history and how it continues to shape our understanding of civilizations long gone
