EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Frontispiece to Veteres arcus Augustorum triumphis insignes" takes us on a journey back in time to the 17th century. The intricate engraving, executed by Robert van Audenaerde in 1690, showcases the remarkable talent of the Italian School. At its center, we are greeted by a striking portrait of Cardinal Pietro Ottoboni, whose distinguished presence commands attention. Ottoboni was not only an esteemed clergyman but also held the prestigious title of grandnephew to Pope Alexander VIII. His visage radiates wisdom and authority as he gazes out from within an oval frame. Surrounding Ottoboni's portrait are various allegorical figures that symbolize different aspects of his life and achievements. Athena, the goddess of wisdom and war strategy, represents his intellectual prowess and leadership qualities. Cherubs and putti float playfully around him, adding a touch of whimsy to this otherwise solemn composition. The backdrop features a scenic view of Rome's Tiber River flowing gracefully beneath ancient arches adorned with triumphant symbols. This imagery serves as a reminder of Ottoboni's connection to history and tradition. This exquisite frontispiece was likely created for dedication purposes or as part of a title page for an important publication within the Catholic Church. Its detailed depiction captures both religious symbolism and elements associated with power and influence. Now preserved in a private collection, this masterful print continues to captivate viewers with its rich icon
