EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "View of the Temple of Augustus, from The Principal Ruins of Asia Minor" takes us on a journey back in time to ancient Turkey. Published in 1863 by an English School artist, this print showcases the remarkable architectural beauty and historical significance of the Temple of Augustus. The image transports us to Ankara, where we are greeted by the majestic ruins that once stood as a testament to Roman power and grandeur. The columned portico and gate draw our attention, hinting at the magnificence that lies beyond. As we explore further into the engraving, we discover intricate details etched onto every surface - evidence of skilled craftsmanship from centuries ago. The monumentum ancyranum or Monument of Ancyra dominates the scene with its imposing presence. This temple dedicated to Emperor Augustus stands tall against time's relentless march. Its weathered facade tells stories untold; it whispers secrets only history can reveal. Through this lithograph, we are reminded of humanity's enduring fascination with ancient civilizations and their remnants. It serves as a window into a world long gone but not forgotten - a reminder that even in decay, there is beauty and wisdom waiting to be discovered. As part of The Stapleton Collection held privately yet shared through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, this artwork invites us to reflect on our own place within history's vast tapestry while appreciating the timeless allure found within these ancient ruins.
