Gorgoneion Akritis Earrings - 18K Gold Plated

$179AUD
Description

Gold stud earrings with gorgoneion emblem.

Akritic songs are the Byzantine counterpart to the chivalric romances of Western Europe, telling tales of heroism and love. They represent the vast cross-cultural exchange between East and West, where heroes of mixed Greek and Byzantine heritage negotiate their cultural and political identities. With the Gorgoneion as an ancient Greek symbol of protection, the Akritic earrings marry these various cultural influences in their design.

Length: 2.3cm. Width: 1.6cm.
