EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Hellenistic wall-painting of a soldier dating back to the 3rd century BC. The artwork, discovered in Aegean Turkey and currently housed at the Archaeological Museum in Istanbul, offers us a glimpse into ancient history. Standing tall and proud, the male figure depicted represents the strength and valor of soldiers during that era. Dressed in traditional attire, his colorful garments reflect the rich cultural heritage of Turkey. Adorned with an intricately designed helmet and holding a shield, this warrior embodies both protection and warfare. The image transports us to another time as we contemplate the significance of this archaeological find. It serves as a reminder of how art can transcend centuries, allowing us to connect with our past on a profound level. As we admire this full-length wall painting captured by photographer CM Dixon from Mike Dixon's collection, it is important to acknowledge its historical value rather than focusing solely on commercial use or ownership rights. Let us appreciate it for what it truly represents – an invaluable piece of human history preserved through artistry and archaeology.
