EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable pair of bronze ritual spoons, discovered in an Iron Age grave at Pen Bryn in Wales. The spoons are beautifully displayed against a pristine white background, allowing their intricate details to shine through. One spoon features an inscribed cross, adding an air of mystery and symbolism to its purpose. The other spoon exhibits a small hole, hinting at potential ceremonial or practical uses. Now part of the esteemed National Museums collection of Wales in Cardiff, these ancient artifacts offer a fascinating glimpse into the rituals and customs of our ancestors. Crafted with precision and care during the Iron Age, these spoons were not merely utilitarian objects but held great significance within their cultural context. The rich bronze color adds warmth and depth to the image while emphasizing the craftsmanship that went into creating these extraordinary pieces. Expertly captured by photographer CM Dixon, this studio shot allows us to appreciate every minute detail on these historic treasures. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can't help but marvel at how such seemingly ordinary objects can hold so much meaning and tell stories from centuries past. It is through careful preservation and display that we continue to honor our heritage and gain insights into our collective history as a country.
