EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of a remarkable Roman statue, known as the statue of Pompey. The unidentified male personage depicted in this sculpture has earned its name due to its discovery near the residence of the renowned Roman military leader, Pompey. Located within the grand Salone di Pompeo at Palazzo Spada in Rome, this masterpiece stands as a testament to ancient civilization and Roman artistry. The photograph itself was taken around 1890, allowing us a glimpse into history during the first Imperial Period. The statue portrays an impressive figure adorned with armor and military equipment, symbolizing strength and power. Every detail is meticulously captured by Anderson from Alinari's lens - from the intricate sword held firmly in his hand to his noble facial expression that exudes authority. Notably, draped over his muscular physique is a magnificent mantle cloak which adds an element of regality to his presence. This striking accessory further emphasizes his status as a prominent figure in society. Intriguingly, nestled beside him lies an intriguing object - a globe or perhaps even a ball - hinting at knowledge or influence beyond mere military might. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork frozen in time through Anderson's lens, we are transported back to an era when Rome reigned supreme. It serves as a reminder of our connection to ancient civilizations and their enduring impact on European history. This print invites us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the historical significance behind this enigmatic statue of Pompey – forever preserved within Palazzo Spada for generations to come.
