EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable fragment of Roman trabeation and moulding, adorned with an intricate frieze representing various sacrificial rite items. The photograph captures the essence of ancient Rome's rich history and architectural marvels. The fragment is believed to be part of the Tabularium, a renowned building in Rome that served as the official records office during the Imperial Period. Dating back to the 2nd century, this exquisite piece of art exemplifies Roman craftsmanship at its finest. The frieze depicted on this fragment depicts a series of bucrania (ox skulls), pateras (libation bowls), jugs, and other objects associated with sacrificial rituals. These symbols hold great significance in Roman religious practices, reflecting their deep-rooted beliefs and traditions. The attention to detail showcased in this artwork is truly awe-inspiring. Each element within the frieze has been meticulously carved, showcasing not only artistic prowess but also providing valuable insights into ancient Roman culture. This photograph offers viewers a glimpse into Europe's ancient civilization through its depiction of Roman artistry. It serves as a testament to the enduring legacy left behind by one of history's most influential empires. Captured around 1890 by Anderson from Alinari, this image allows us to appreciate both the beauty and historical importance preserved within such archaeological finds. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded of our connection to those who came before us and their lasting impact on our world.
