EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Mile Stone, Cage of the sacred pullets, Naval column" takes us back to ancient times with its depiction of classical fashion and clothing. The engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases a scene from Thomas Hope's book "Costume of the Ancients". In this image, we see a milestone marking an important point along a road. Surrounding it is a cage filled with sacred pullets, symbolizing their significance in ancient rituals and beliefs. Standing tall behind them is a majestic naval column, representing the power and might of the navy. The attention to detail in depicting the costumes and dress of this era is remarkable. Every fold and fabric texture has been intricately engraved to bring these ancient garments to life. It offers us a glimpse into how people clothed themselves during that time period. This artwork not only captures historical attire but also reminds us of the importance placed on military forces like the army and navy in ancient civilizations. It serves as a testament to their strength and influence over society. As we admire this stunning print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported back in time to witness both fashion trends and cultural customs that have shaped our understanding of history today.
