EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Arch of the Gold- and Silversmiths in Rome, as depicted in a 1682 engraving by Antoine Babuty Desgodets. The arch, also known as Arcus Argentariorum or Arch of the money-changers, is beautifully illustrated in this piece from Les Edifices Antiques de Rome. The architectural marvel stands tall against the backdrop of ancient Rome, adorned with intricate details that speak to its classical grandeur. The composite order columns rise gracefully towards an ornate entablature, while decorative foliation adds a touch of elegance to every corner. As one gazes upon this image, they are transported back in time to witness the bustling activity that once surrounded this iconic structure. Goldsmiths and silversmiths would have gathered here, exchanging their precious wares amidst a vibrant atmosphere filled with creativity and commerce. The print captures not only the physical beauty of the arch but also its historical significance as a symbol of wealth and craftsmanship. It serves as a reminder of Rome's rich cultural heritage and its enduring influence on European architecture. Displayed within private collections for centuries, this remarkable engraving now finds itself preserved for all to admire thanks to Bridgeman Images' dedication to sharing fine art with audiences worldwide.
