EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Aries fluent concealed reconstructed according to the descriptions of Vegezio" takes us back in time to the Augustan Exhibition of Roman spirit at the Palazzo delle Esposizioni in Rome, held between 1937 and 1938. The exhibition aimed to celebrate and showcase the rich cultural heritage of ancient Rome. In this particular image, we see a meticulously crafted model depicting an Aries (ram) being skillfully concealed. The reconstruction is based on the detailed descriptions provided by Vegezio, a renowned Roman military writer from antiquity. This artwork not only captures the essence of Roman craftsmanship but also highlights their fascination with games and pastimes. The photographer behind this remarkable piece is Alinari, Fratelli - a name synonymous with excellence in capturing historical moments through their lens. Their expertise shines through as they expertly frame this intricate model against a plain backdrop, allowing every detail to be appreciated. Taken in 1938 during the Augustan Exhibition at Palazzo delle Esposizioni, this photograph serves as a testament to Rome's enduring legacy. It transports viewers into an era where artistry met functionality; where meticulous reconstructions brought history back to life. While it remains unclear how this specific print was used commercially or whether it was part of Alinari's collection for public consumption or private appreciation, one thing is certain – its existence offers us a glimpse into an extraordinary period that continues to captivate our imagination today.
