EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Triumphal arch built in honor of Emperor Caracalla, located on the Decumanus Maximus in Volubilis, Morocco. Dating back to AD 217, this architectural marvel stands as a testament to the grandeur and power of the Roman Empire during the 3rd century AD. The image captures the remains of this awe-inspiring structure, highlighting its towering columns and majestic arch. Serving as the south gateway to town, it exudes an air of ancient elegance amidst a backdrop of ruins. The intricate details preserved in this photograph allow viewers to appreciate the craftsmanship and artistry that went into constructing such a monumental piece. Volubilis itself holds historical significance as it was annexed by Rome in 40 AD. This particular triumphal arch symbolizes Emperor Caracalla's achievements and victories during his reign. Its imposing presence commands attention while serving as a reminder of Rome's dominance over vast territories. Photographer Gerard Degeorge has masterfully captured this moment frozen in time, allowing us to transport ourselves back centuries ago when emperors ruled with authority and architecture reflected their glory. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of our shared human history but also how even remnants can evoke emotions and inspire wonderment within us all.
