EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the ancient city of Herculaneum in Campania, Italy. Stepping into this Roman food shop feels like a journey through history, as we are transported to an era long gone. The image showcases the remarkable architecture and cultural heritage of this UNESCO World Heritage site. The building itself exudes grandeur with its marble façade, standing as a testament to the craftsmanship of that era. Inside, rows of amphorae line the shelves, offering a glimpse into the culinary delights that once filled these containers. A food seller can be seen behind the counter, perhaps imagining what life was like for those who frequented this market centuries ago. The aroma of Mediterranean delicacies would have wafted through the air as locals gathered here to purchase their daily provisions. The presence of an awl on one of the shelves hints at not only food but also other goods that were traded in this bustling hub. It serves as a reminder that markets were not just places for sustenance but also centers for commerce and social interaction. As we admire this photograph by CU from Discover Images by AWL, it sparks our curiosity about life during Roman times and leaves us yearning to explore more historical sites across Europe.
