EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases two ancient Roman cups or tazza, dating back to 1802. The print captures the intricate details of these remarkable artifacts, which are now part of a private collection. The first cup is a tripod cup or tazza in the Latin Style, currently housed in the Vatican Museum. Its elegant design and craftsmanship reflect the grandeur of ancient Roman culture. The second cup is an antique made from paonazzetto marble, originating from the Orti Mattei in Montecelio's Mattei Gardens. Created by Lorenzo Roccheggiani, this engraving was skillfully executed by Pietro Ruga based on Roccheggiani's own illustration. It is one of many plates featured in Roccheggiani's publication titled "100 Plates of Costumes Religious, Civil and Military of the Ancient Egyptians, Etruscans, Greeks and Romans" published in Rome in 1802. This exquisite piece not only serves as a window into ancient Roman history but also highlights the artistry and attention to detail prevalent during that era. With its ornate decoration and meticulous engravings, this print would make a stunning addition to any interior design scheme. As we admire this image captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can't help but appreciate how it transports us back to antiquity while reminding us of our enduring fascination with ancient civilizations.
