EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to one of the rooms of the Municipal Museum in Mantua. Stepping into this space, our eyes are immediately drawn to the majestic statue of Apollo that stands proudly at its center. The statue, dating back to the Imperial Period and showcasing exquisite Roman artistry, emanates an aura of ancient civilization. Apollo, a prominent figure in Greek and Roman mythology, is depicted here with great attention to detail. His strong and masculine form exudes power and divinity as he stands tall amidst a lush vegetal composition. The presence of snakes entwined around his body adds an intriguing element, symbolizing both wisdom and danger. As we gaze upon this photograph captured by Alinari Fratelli between 1915-1920, we can't help but marvel at how it transports us back through centuries. It serves as a reminder of Europe's rich cultural heritage and the enduring influence of Greco-Roman traditions.

It reminds us that even after thousands of years, their creations continue to captivate audiences worldwide. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also invites us to explore history through visual storytelling. It sparks curiosity about life during the Imperial Period while highlighting the significance of art as a medium for preserving our past. Let this image serve as an inspiration for all who encounter it – a testament to human creativity throughout different eras and a window into our collective heritage.
