Bronze Animal Figure from the Luristan Culture (1200 - 600 BC)
Step into the ancient world of Luristan, where the boundaries between the mystical and the everyday blurred. This bronze animal figure is more than just a piece of art—it is an object infused with history, with spirit. Crafted in a time when faith and offerings formed the connection between people and gods.
In Luristan between 1200 and 600 BC, bronze was more than mere metal. It was shaped into figures that became votive offerings, symbols of devotion. These animal figures, silent and powerful, embodied hope, protection, and a connection to the unknown. They were laid down as votive gifts, silent witnesses to the prayers of souls long forgotten.
The bronze, now weathered by time, bears the marks of centuries of tradition. The patina tells stories lost to the wind, yet still tangible in the smooth, worn surfaces.
This bronze ox figure from the Luristan culture stands as a symbol of strength, fertility, and the promise of a prosperous harvest. In ancient times, the ox was revered for its vital role in agriculture, embodying both physical power and the hope for abundance. As a votive offering, this figure was an expression of devotion, offered to the gods in the belief that it would ensure fruitful fields and thriving crops. Now weathered by the passage of time, the bronze ox remains a testament to the deep connection between people, the land, and the divine forces that governed their fortunes.
Become part of this timeless tradition. Let this bronze figure once again find its place in the modern world—as a work of art, a symbol of our shared history, and as a reminder of the mysterious power of the past.
