As a small business owner, I am a one-woman band, and I need to learn product photography (among other things besides my craft 😅). Any resources you might recommend are highly appreciated!

The bicameral mind. For #ReliefWednesday, a late antique #ivory #diptych in the #Bargello. The left panel shows St Paul on #Malta, complete with horrified bystanders reacting to a viper biting his hand. On the right, Adam is rendered as a classical pagan hero. #AncientBluesky 🏺

IVORY DIPTYCH WITH SCENES OF SAINT PAUL AND ADAM, C. 400 CE. MUSEO NAZIONALE DEL BARGELLO, FLORENCE This intricately carved late antique ivory diptych presents what appears to modern eyes as a stylistic clash, but which actually reflects a perfectly coherent worldview. The left panel features dynamic, chaotic scenes from the life of Saint Paul, centring on his time on Malta where he shakes a viper into a fire while bystanders react with visceral horror. This dramatic New Testament narrative of the fallen world contrasts sharply with the right panel, which displays Adam in the Garden of Eden surrounded by a peaceful menagerie. Adam is rendered as a classical heroic nude, his static and idealised pose mirroring pagan depictions of Orpheus. To the late antique mind, there was no dissonance in pairing active Christian miracle stories with calm classical imagery. The diptych effortlessly employs established classical artistic vocabulary to convey a unified Christian dogmatic message, visually arguing that the ultimate goal of New Testament salvation is a return to the pre-fall harmony of Eden.
