EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Scythian depiction of an archer on horseback, carefully preserved in the British Museum's collection. The image transports us back to ancient Scythia, where skilled warriors honed their archery skills astride magnificent horses. The photograph captures the essence of this ancient sport as we witness a male rider taking aim with his bow and arrow. His intense focus is palpable, highlighting the precision and concentration required for successful archery. The vibrant colors of the artifact bring life to this stone carving, allowing us to appreciate its intricate details. The powerful bond between man and horse is evident in this portrayal. The horse stands tall and strong, symbolizing both companionship and strength in battle. Together, they form an inseparable team that exemplifies the prowess of Scythian warriors. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece from centuries past, it serves as a testament to human ingenuity and artistic expression throughout history. It reminds us of our shared heritage and offers a glimpse into the lives of those who came before us. Thanks to photographers CM Dixon and Mike Dixon's expertise behind the lens, we are able to admire this incredible artifact from afar – without commercial use – while still appreciating its historical significance within the walls of one of Britain's most renowned museums.
