Descripción del Artículo
Popis produktu:
This striking modern restrike of an ancient Greek tetradrachm from Syracuse captures the essence of one of the most iconic coin designs in numismatic history, the Demareteion. The obverse features a detailed profile of Arethusa, the nymph associated with the city?s freshwater springs, her head adorned with a diadem of reeds and surrounded by dolphins, symbolizing Syracuse?s maritime prominence. The letters ?AA? beneath her portrait are a nod to the original coin?s control marks, often used by ancient mints to denote specific magistrates or issues. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this piece reflects the artistic mastery of 5th-century BCE Sicily, a period when Syracuse was a thriving cultural and economic hub under the rule of the Deinomenid tyrants, such as Gelon and Hieron I.
The reverse showcases a quadriga, a four-horse chariot, driven at full gallop?a common motif on Syracusan coinage symbolizing victory and prestige, often linked to the city?s success in the Olympic Games. Above the quadriga, a Nike (Victory) hovers, crowning the horses, while the inscription ???????????? (Syrakosion) encircles the design, proudly declaring the coin?s origin. The central element, a kantharos (a ceremonial drinking vessel) with grapevines, alludes to the region?s fertility and the cult of Dionysus, emphasizing Syracuse?s agricultural wealth and religious traditions. This novodel piece, while not an original artifact, offers collectors a tangible connection to the rich history of Magna Graecia, making it a valuable addition for enthusiasts of ancient numismatics and classical art.
