EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases one of the Lunigiana stele, a remarkable archaeological find from Bigliolo dating back to around 3000 BC. Carved out of stone, this ancient artifact is housed in the Museo delle Statue Stele in Pontremoli, Italy. Belonging to Group C, it represents an intriguing glimpse into prehistoric times. The intricate detailing on this stele is truly awe-inspiring. The figure depicted appears both primitive and stylized, with its naive yet powerful carving capturing the imagination. The inclusion of an axe suggests a funerary context or perhaps symbolizes a weapon used by the deceased for protection in the afterlife. As we gaze upon this monument, we are transported back thousands of years to a time when civilization was still in its infancy. It serves as a memorial to our ancestors and their rich cultural heritage. The Lunigiana stele stands as a testament to human creativity and ingenuity even during these early stages of history. Thanks to Giuliano Valsecchi's skillful photography, we can now appreciate every intricate detail of this extraordinary piece without having to travel back in time ourselves. This print allows us to marvel at the craftsmanship and symbolism inherent within this ancient relic while also reminding us of our shared human history that stretches far beyond what we can imagine today.
