EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Floor Mosaic of Romulus, Remus, and Wolf, found in a Roman Villa in Carthage, Tunisia. Dating back to the 2nd-3rd century, this mosaic holds great historical significance as it depicts the mythological tale that led to the founding of Rome. The city of Carthage was annexed by Rome after the Third Punic War in 149-146 BC. This exquisite artwork serves as a testament to Rome's influence and control over this ancient African city. According to Roman mythology, Romulus and Remus were twin brothers who were abandoned at birth but rescued by a she-wolf. The mosaic beautifully captures this pivotal moment when they are discovered by the nurturing wolf. This legend is deeply intertwined with the origins of Rome itself and its subsequent rise as a powerful empire. The vibrant colors and intricate details of this mosaic make it an extraordinary artifact from antiquity. It not only reflects the artistic prowess of Roman craftsmen but also provides valuable insights into their cultural beliefs and storytelling traditions. Preserved through centuries, this photograph allows us to appreciate both the beauty and historical significance of this ancient masterpiece. As we gaze upon it today, we are transported back in time to witness a crucial chapter in human history - one that shaped Western civilization forever.
