Archaeology Female Likeness Figurine Flash Grey Background Smooth Terracotta
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable female statuette from the Quimbaya culture, crafted out of terracotta. Dating back to the 10th-16th century, this ancient artifact is currently housed in the Museo Preistorico Etnografico Pigorini (Museum of Ethnography and Prehistory) in Rome, Italy. The statuette's smooth texture and intricate details are beautifully captured in this studio shot. With its vertical composition against a grey background, this single object takes center stage, allowing us to appreciate its historical significance and artistic craftsmanship. The absence of people in the frame emphasizes the solitary beauty of this figurine. As we gaze upon this flash from the past, we are transported back to a time when Colombian art flourished within the Quimbaya culture. This female likeness carries with it an air of mystery and intrigue as we ponder its purpose and symbolism. The terracotta material adds warmth to the overall color palette while also reminding us of humanity's connection with nature. It serves as a tangible link between our present-day existence and those who came before us. This photograph not only captures an archaeological treasure but also invites us to reflect on our shared history as well as celebrate the creativity that has transcended time through art and craft.
