Geometric Plate – Goddess Artemis

A rare ceramic plate depicting the goddess Artemis that was discovered on the island of Paros and is now displayed at the Archaeological Museum of Mykonos in Greece.
In Homer’s works, Artemis is referred to as ‘Potnia Theron,’ meaning ‘mistress of animals,’ a title that is associated with depictions of her in art dating back to the Bronze Age, often showing her alongside animals. Ancient poets described Artemis as towering over the nymphs who typically accompanied her, emphasizing her impressive height and stature.
In this remarkable scene, Artemis is shown holding a pair of swans in her hands.
The plate is a high-quality; hand-painted work of art produced in Greece, and is truly one-of-a-kind.
