EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Solidus of Eugenius, a magnificent gold coin from the 4th century AD. The image captures every intricate detail of this historical artifact, now housed in the Museo Nazionale Romano in Rome, Italy. The solidus was minted during the reign of Flavius Eugenius, who served as Emperor of the Western Roman Empire from 392 to 394. This exquisite piece exemplifies wealth and power with its radiant golden hue and impeccable craftsmanship. The portrait on the coin depicts Eugenius himself, his regal visage immortalized for eternity. Surrounding him is an inscription in Latin that further emphasizes his authority and status as emperor. Adding to its allure are angelic figures delicately engraved into the metal surface. These celestial beings symbolize divine protection and serve as a reminder of Eugenius' connection to higher powers. As we gaze upon this remarkable solidus, we are transported back in time to an era where currency held not only monetary value but also conveyed political influence and cultural significance. It serves as a tangible link between ancient Rome's past glory and our present fascination with history. Vincenzo Pirozzi's masterful photography allows us to appreciate this extraordinary piece up close, capturing its beauty while reminding us of its historical importance.
