EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "PDC-S-000537-0003" takes us back in time to the majestic Temple of Minerva in Rome. The image showcases the temple's remarkable architectural features, particularly the renowned 'Colonnacce' that gracefully support an intricately decorated attic adorned with a mesmerizing bas-relief frieze. Standing tall within this grandeur is the statue of Minerva herself, exuding strength and wisdom. Dating back to 1870-1890, this photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to the enduring beauty and historical significance of ancient Roman structures. The location itself adds another layer of fascination – Rome, a city steeped in history and known for its rich archaeological sites, monuments, and complexes. Every element depicted within this print tells a story: from the architrave and building elements that form the foundation of this magnificent structure to the intricate decorations adorning its walls. It is impossible not to be captivated by every detail captured by photographer Tommaso Cuccioni. Moreover, we are reminded of Athena or Minerva – powerful female divinities from Greco-Roman mythology who symbolize wisdom and strategic warfare. Their presence within this temple further emphasizes its cultural importance as both a religious site and architectural marvel. Cuccioni's work masterfully highlights not just one aspect but rather encompasses various disciplines such as sculpture, architecture, archaeology - all united under one lens. This print invites viewers on an enchanting journey through time while celebrating human creativity throughout history.
