EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Greek art known as the Ludovisi Throne. Originally part of Cardinal Ludovico Ludovisi's collection, this exquisite marble relief dates back to 460-450 BC and measures 84 cm in height. The right relief panel depicts a naked woman, believed to be a hetary, skillfully playing a double flute. The intricate details and craftsmanship of this ancient artwork are truly awe-inspiring. The delicate curves of the woman's body are expertly carved into the marble, capturing her graceful posture and fluid movements as she plays the flute. The artist's attention to realism is evident in every aspect, from the texture of her skin to the folds in her drapery. Located at Palazzo Altemps in Rome, Italy, this masterpiece is now housed within Museo Nazionale Romano - Magna Graecia (Great Greece). It was originally part of Villa Ludovisi (Horti Sallustiani), adding an intriguing historical context to its already impressive presence. This photograph by Luisa Ricciarini beautifully captures all these elements, allowing viewers to appreciate both the artistic mastery and cultural significance behind this ancient Greek artifact. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the beauty and talent that flourished during one of history's most influential periods – reminding us once again why Greek art continues to captivate audiences around the world.
