EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exquisite beauty of the "Head of Juno Ludovisi" sculpture, housed in the National Museum of Rome, Palazzo Altemps. Taken around 1890, this print showcases a remarkable piece of Roman art that dates back to the 1st century BC to the 4th century AD. The intricate details of this ancient masterpiece are brought to life through Anderson's lens. The diadem adorning Juno's head sparkles with elegance, while her jewelry exudes opulence and grandeur. This object is not merely a relic; it represents the applied arts and crafts of its time, showcasing skilled craftsmanship that has stood the test of centuries. Juno Ludovisi herself is depicted as a divine female figure from mythology, embodying power and grace. As one gazes upon her serene yet commanding expression, they can't help but be transported back in time to an era when gods and goddesses were revered. This photograph serves as a window into European ancient civilization - Greco-Roman culture at its finest. It reminds us of our connection to history and how art has always been an integral part of human existence. Alinari's composition allows us to appreciate every delicate feature carved by unknown hands long ago. The play between light and shadow adds depth and mystery to this portrait-like representation. As we admire this image today, let us reflect on how such artifacts have shaped our understanding of our past. They serve as tangible links connecting us with those who came before us – their beliefs, aspirations, and artistic achievements forever etched in stone or captured through photography like Anderson did here at Palazzo Altemps in Rome's National Museum.
