EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a collection of ancient footwear from the civilizations of Rome and Greece, as depicted in a beautiful copperplate engraving by Pietro Ruga, published in Lorenzo Rocceggiani's "100 Plates of Costumes Religious, Civil and Military of the Ancient Egyptians, Etruscans, Greeks and Romans." The engraving, created in Rome in 1802, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the intricacies and craftsmanship of shoes worn by these ancient cultures. The central focus of the image is an ancient Roman shoe from the Palazzo Giustiniani, with its distinctive open-toed design and intricate decorative elements. The shoe's thick sole and laces suggest that it was designed for practical use, making it an ideal choice for everyday wear. Two ancient Greek shoes are also featured in the engraving. The first, from the Vatican Museum, is a sandal with a raised platform and intricate patterns adorning the straps, reflecting the elegance and sophistication of Greek footwear. The second pair, depicted on Greek vases 3 and 4, are more simple in design, with a flat sole and laces that crisscross over the instep. The intricately detailed illustrations in this engraving offer a unique perspective on the footwear of ancient civilizations, allowing us to appreciate the craftsmanship and artistry of these cultures. From the practical Roman sandals to the elegant Greek designs, these shoes provide a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily lives and fashion trends of ancient Rome and Greece.
