Qeen of the night 🌟🪬♀️🦁🦉
We cut out the background, made a stencil with the film so that the background would be darker and there would be more contrast with the figure.
Ishtar—also known as Inanna or Astarte—was one of the most powerful goddesses of Mesopotamia. She embodied love, fertility, and war, and was often depicted with wings, owls, and lions, symbols of her strength and divine aura. Her image has inspired cultures for thousands of years and continues to fascinate us today.
The famous relief of the goddess Ishtar, also called The Burney Relief, housed in the British Museum in London. The original artifact, dating back nearly 4,000 years, shows the goddess standing on lions and flanked by owls, radiating power and mystery
It represent the Horses of the Hekatompedon 🐴
From the Hekatompedon temple (ἑκατόμπεδος) on the Athenian Acropolis (c. 570 BC, Archaic period).
Hymettian marble, height 0.49 m. Now in the Acropolis Museum.
Front halves of four horses, carved separately and sawn vertically to fit on a metope. The two central heads face each other, the outer ones turn outward.
Reins carved in relief, metal bits once inserted in the mouths. Traces of polychromy survive (black on the mane).
Part of a quadriga scene; the charioteer was likely painted or carved in low relief on the background.
Combination of marble, paint, and metal — typical of early Athenian Archaic sculpture.
Context: The Hekatompedon also featured pedimental scenes (lions, Heracles vs. Triton, three-bodied “Bluebeard” figure). Found in 1888 near the Parthenon.
Early example of equestrian imagery on the Acropolis, anticipating the later classical horse groups of the Parthenon.
