EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two ostrakons, ancient ceramic artifacts from Greek civilization dating back to the 5th century BC. The ostrakons belong to renowned Athenian politicians Aristides and Themistocles, who played significant roles in shaping the political landscape of their time. The first ostrakon features Aristides, known as "the Just" a highly respected statesman recognized for his fairness and integrity. His influence spanned from approximately 530 to 462 BC, leaving an indelible mark on Athenian politics during this period. The second ostrakon belongs to Themistocles, a prominent figure in Athens between 530 and 471 BC. Known for his strategic brilliance and leadership skills, Themistocles was instrumental in securing victory against the Persian Empire at the Battle of Salamis in 482 BC. These engravements on ancient ceramics provide us with a glimpse into the past, offering valuable insights into Greek history and politics. The Latin script adorning these objects adds an intriguing layer of linguistic connection across civilizations. Photographed against colored backgrounds – one grey and another unspecified – these studio shots bring out the exquisite details of these archaeological artifacts while emphasizing their significance as historical relics. With no people present in the frame, our focus is solely drawn towards these remarkable pieces that have withstood the test of time
