This print showcases the mesmerizing Gorgon head, a remarkable piece of ancient civilization found at the archaeological site of Leptis Magna in Tripolitania, Libya. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this outdoor landmark stands as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of North Africa. The image beautifully captures the intricate stone work and decorative motifs that adorn this ancient ruin. The close-up view allows us to appreciate the skillful craftsmanship and attention to detail in its carving.
