EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Roman Emperor Caligula, also known as Caius Caesar Germanicus. The engraving, created by Pierre Jean Mariette between 1694 and 1774, beautifully captures the profile of this historical figure. Caligula's reign from 12 to 41 AD was marked by controversy and extravagance. Known for his erratic behavior and tyrannical rule, he remains a fascinating character in ancient history. This portrait offers a glimpse into the face of power during the first century of the Roman Empire. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this engraving. From Caligula's regal attire to his intense gaze, each element adds depth and complexity to his portrayal. The use of color further enhances the overall impact, bringing life to an era long gone. Displayed in a private collection, this artwork serves as a reminder of our fascination with antiquity and our desire to understand those who shaped it. It invites us to delve into the complexities of power dynamics within ancient Rome while contemplating how they continue to influence our world today. Stefano Bianchetti has skillfully captured this piece through photography, preserving its beauty for generations to come. As we admire this photo print, we are transported back in time - witnessing both the grandeur and darkness that defined Caligula's reign as Roman Emperor.
