EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the ancient city of Rome, showcasing three iconic landmarks that have stood the test of time. In the foreground, we are greeted by the majestic Colosseum, its grandeur and architectural brilliance still awe-inspiring even after centuries. To its left stands the Meta Sudante, a colossal cone-shaped monument that once adorned this bustling Roman Forum. On the right side of the frame emerges another remarkable structure: the arch of Constantine. This triumphal arch serves as a testament to Emperor Constantine's victories and commemorates his reign during 72-80 AD. Its intricate carvings and imposing presence add an air of majesty to this already breathtaking scene. The photograph itself was captured around 1890, offering us a glimpse into both ancient history and more recent times. It showcases not only these magnificent ruins but also highlights how transportation has evolved over decades. A horse-drawn coach can be seen traversing along a road nearby, reminding us of how people traveled during that era. Alinari Fratelli skillfully captures this landscape with ruins in stunning detail, emphasizing their significance within European history and ancient civilization. The image invites contemplation on human ingenuity and endurance while marveling at these enduring remnants from antiquity. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, our imagination runs wild with visions of gladiatorial battles held within those walls or citizens strolling through bustling marketplaces long ago vanished into dust. Alinari Fratelli's work allows us to connect with our past while appreciating the beauty that remains today – an everlasting tribute to Roman artistry and cultural heritage.
