EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Stela with human figures, dating back to the High Imperial Period (27 BC-395 AD). Crafted from stone and captured by Gerard Degeorge, this ancient artifact hails from Djemila, Algeria. The stela features intricately carved human figures adorned in togas, possibly dedicated to Saturn. Known as Cuicul during the Roman colonial era, Djemila was established by Emperor Nerva for retired soldiers of the Legion between 96-98 AD. The image captures not only the exquisite craftsmanship of the stela but also provides a glimpse into the rich history of North Africa during Roman rule. The inscription and text on the stela add an air of mystery and intrigue to this archaeological find. Gerard Degeorge's expert photography allows us to appreciate every detail of this historical treasure while preserving its authenticity. This particular print is part of his collection that is out of copyright, making it accessible for enthusiasts and art lovers alike. As we delve into this visual masterpiece, we are transported back in time to an era where bull symbolism held significance and men donned togas as symbols of power. It serves as a reminder that even after centuries have passed, these remnants continue to tell stories about our shared pasts and cultural heritage.
