EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite ear ornament from the final Jomon period in 5th century B. C. Japanese art. Crafted out of terracotta, this ancient artifact is a testament to the remarkable creativity and skill of its creators. Against a pristine white background, the intricate spiral design takes center stage, drawing our attention to its delicate details. Photographed in a studio setting, this image allows us to appreciate every curve and contour of this fascinating piece. With no people present, we are left alone with this relic from the past, allowing our imagination to wander into prehistoric times. The ear ornament's significance becomes even more apparent when considering its context within history. Representing an extinct era that predates modern civilization as we know it today, it offers us a glimpse into humanity's distant past. Its presence evokes thoughts of forgotten cultures and lost traditions. Interestingly enough, resembling a fossilized gastrioceras shell found during the carboniferous period adds another layer of intrigue to this already captivating object. It serves as a reminder that life on Earth has evolved and transformed over millions of years. Colin Keates' masterful photography captures not only the physical beauty but also the historical importance encapsulated within this single object. This Universal Images Group (UIG) print invites us to reflect on our shared human heritage while marveling at the artistic achievements of those who came before us.
