EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent View of Trajan's Column and the Church of SS Nome di Maria, captured by the renowned artist Giovanni Battista Piranesi in his Views of Rome series. Created around 1760, this etching beautifully captures the essence of ancient Roman architecture and monumentality. In this composition, Piranesi skillfully juxtaposes Trajan's Column, a triumphal symbol from ancient Rome, with the grandeur of the Church of SS Nome di Maria. The column stands tall and proud in all its glory while serving as a backdrop to the intricate baroque facade of the church. This combination creates a striking contrast between two distinct architectural styles that coexist harmoniously within Rome's rich history. The viewer is transported back in time to witness both past and present converge in one frame. The monumental presence of Trajan's Column reminds us of Rome's imperial past, while simultaneously highlighting its enduring influence on contemporary structures like SS Nome di Maria. Piranesi masterfully captures every detail with precision and finesse, allowing viewers to appreciate not only the physical beauty but also feel an emotional connection to these iconic landmarks. This print serves as a testament to Piranesi's artistic brilliance and his ability to immortalize historical sites for generations to come.
