EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from the 2nd century A. D, known as the Double-sided Mithraic Relief. Housed within the prestigious Louvre Museum, this relief is an exquisite example of ancient craftsmanship and religious symbolism. Carved meticulously on marble, it depicts scenes that intertwine military elements with profound religious significance. On one side of the relief, we are transported to a world where soldiers engage in battle. Their stoic expressions and intricate armor reflect their unwavering commitment to protect their land and beliefs. The attention to detail is awe-inspiring; every fold of fabric and stroke of chisel captures the essence of these warriors' valor. Flipping over this magnificent piece reveals another dimension: a glimpse into the mystical realm of Mithraism. Here, we encounter an enigmatic god named Mithra surrounded by his devoted followers. The delicate features carved into marble bring forth an ethereal quality that seems almost otherworldly. The Double-sided Mithraic Relief serves as a testament to both artistic skill and spiritual devotion during ancient times. It offers us a rare window into the complex tapestry woven between religion and military might in antiquity—a reminder that faith can often be intertwined with earthly struggles for power. As we admire this print from Universal Images Group (UIG), let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its ability to transport us back in time—to an era when gods were revered alongside valiant warriors who fought for what they believed
