EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse into the lives of young Romans engaged in physical exercises during the 3rd - 4th century. Dressed in loincloths around their kidneys and strophiums (ancetra of bras) on their chests, these individuals showcase both strength and grace. The palm branches they hold symbolize victory, adding an element of triumph to the scene. The mosaic artwork originates from Villa del Casale in Piazza Armerina, Sicily, Italy. Its intricate details and vibrant colors bring this ancient Roman era to life. Leonard de Selva's photography skillfully captures every nuance, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and artistry within this historical piece. Intriguingly, this image also offers insight into fashion trends of that time period. The attire worn by these young Romans resembles modern-day swimsuits or lingerie, showcasing how styles have evolved over centuries. As we admire this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever through art. It serves as a reminder of our shared human history and the enduring legacy left behind by ancient civilizations like Rome.
