EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of Terracotta Idols from the House of the Idols, located within the Citadel of Mycenae in Greece. Dating back to the 13th century BC, these ancient artifacts offer a glimpse into the rich history and culture of this remarkable city. Amongst these idols stands one particularly intriguing figure, holding a sword with an air of authority. Mycenae, renowned for its archaeological significance, is nestled near Mikines in Greece's Peloponnisos region. The vibrant colors and intricate details on these terracotta idols highlight their craftsmanship and artistic value. These ceramics serve as tangible links to an era long gone by. The presence of weaponry suggests that warfare played a significant role during this period in Greek history. This artifact not only represents a physical object but also symbolizes concepts such as power, conflict, and protection. Photographed by CM Dixon in the 20th century, this image captures both male likeness and human likeness through these Mycenaean idols. It serves as a testament to our fascination with ancient civilizations and their ability to leave lasting imprints on our collective memory.
