EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Cosinius Market, a remarkable architectural marvel from the High Imperial Period of ancient Rome. Dating back to 27 BC-395 AD, this grand structure stands as a testament to the opulence and sophistication of Roman civilization. Located in Djemila, Algeria, this market was known for its impressive colonnade adorned with majestic columns that stretched as far as the eye could see. The ruins depicted in this photograph offer a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Cuicul, a Roman colonial town established by Emperor Nerva specifically for retired legionnaires between 96-98 AD. Gerard Degeorge's masterful composition captures not only the beauty but also the resilience of these archaeological remains. The intricate details showcased in every column and ruin tell stories of bustling marketplaces filled with merchants and traders from centuries ago. As we admire this image, let us reflect on how civilizations rise and fall throughout time. This photograph serves as a reminder that even though empires may crumble, their legacy lives on through art and architecture. It is through works like Degeorge's that we can appreciate our shared human history and gain insight into ancient societies' achievements and aspirations.
