Editor: This is a reproduction of a Mycenaean Dagger by Emile Gilliéron. It looks surprisingly delicate. What's your take on it? Curator: It whispers of ancient power, doesn’t it? While a reproduction, it attempts to capture the essence of a culture steeped in myth. Imagine the weight of history it evokes, the stories it could tell if only metal could speak! I feel a touch of melancholy looking at it. What do you see reflected in its surface? Editor: I guess I see a link to the past. Thanks, I’ll look closer next time.
