EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Bust of Publio Virgilio Marone" at the renowned Capitoline Museums in Rome. The bust, a masterpiece of Roman art dating back to 25 BC - 1st century AD, is a true testament to the ancient civilization that once thrived in Europe. With its intricate details and lifelike representation, this artwork immortalizes Publio Virgilio Marone, widely known as Virgil, one of history's most celebrated poets. As we gaze upon his noble visage captured by an anonymous artist from the Roman School, we are transported back in time to an era where humanistic disciplines flourished. Displayed prominently in the philosophy room of the museum, this bust symbolizes not only Virgil's literary genius but also his significant influence on Western literature and culture. Through his epic poem "The Aeneid" he crafted a timeless tale that continues to inspire generations with its themes of heroism and destiny. Photographed around 1890 by Anderson from Alinari, this image beautifully captures both the grandeur of Roman artistry and the rich history embedded within it. It serves as a reminder of our connection to ancient civilizations and their enduring contributions to our modern world. Whether you are an admirer of classical literature or simply appreciate fine artistry from centuries past, this print offers a glimpse into a bygone era filled with intellectual pursuits and artistic brilliance. Let it transport you to Rome's Capitoline Museums where you can immerse yourself in the beauty and wisdom preserved within these hallowed halls.
