Item description
Producto Popis:
Esta llamativa pieza esta inspirada en el motivo arcaico de Gorgoneion, un poderoso símbolo en la antigua mitología griega. El anverso presenta la temible cara de la Gorgona Medusa, completa con su lengua tambaleante, ojos saltones y cabello serpentino, un diseño que originalmente cumplía una funcion apotropaica, destinado a alejar el mal. El uso de tales imagenes en monedas se remonta al siglo VI aC, particularmente en regiones como Neapolis o Parion, donde el motivo de la gorgona era emblematico de la proteccion divina y el poder. El reverso muestra una incusa cuadripartita tradicional, típica del estilo numismatico griego temprano, que a menudo se producía por un golpe al golpear la moneda.
Si bien este ejemplo es una reproduccion moderna, captura con notable precision la feroz gravedad estetica y simbolica de las primeras monedas griegas. La Gorgoneion era mas que un mero adorno: era un talisman mitologico, profundamente arraigado en los sistemas de creencias del antiguo mundo mediterraneo. Tanto coleccionistas como historiadores apreciaran el valor educativo y visual de esta moneda, por lo que es una excelente adicion a cualquier coleccion centrada en la iconografía griega arcaica o la evolucion de los símbolos protectores en la antigüedad clasica.
