EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Bas-relief taken from the collection of antiquity at the ex Kircheriano Museum of Collegio Massimo, now known as the National Roman Museum in Rome. The exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in this Low Relief, which belongs to the Roman Art of Europe's Ancient Civilization. Dating back to approximately 1st century AD, this artwork depicts various elements that were significant during that era. Among them, we can spot reptiles such as crocodiles and other vertebrates alongside birds. These creatures symbolize the diverse fauna present during ancient times. The Bas-relief also features architectural components like columns and huts, representing building elements commonly found in Roman structures. These primary elements serve as decorative sections within the artwork, showcasing their importance in ancient architecture. Furthermore, natural elements and phenomena are depicted with finesse. Water is portrayed flowing gracefully throughout the relief, emphasizing its significance for both practical purposes and aesthetic appeal in Roman society. Captured around 1940 by Anderson from Alinari's lens, this print immortalizes a remarkable piece of history preserved within the walls of Rome's National Roman Museum. Its artistic value lies not only in its visual beauty but also in its ability to transport us back to an era long gone – reminding us of our rich cultural heritage.
