EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the grandeur and history of Ostia, the main port of Rome during the 2nd century. The ancient city comes to life in vivid color, showcasing its impressive buildings and ruins that stand as a testament to its once-thriving trade and bustling port activity. Ostia Antica, located in Lazio, Italy, was a vital hub for commerce and played a crucial role in Rome's economic prosperity. The landscape depicted here is awe-inspiring, with remnants of magnificent structures dotting the horizon. These architectural marvels tell stories of an era long gone but not forgotten. The photograph by CM Dixon transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine what life was like within these walls centuries ago. It invites us to explore every detail – from intricate carvings on weathered stones to crumbling facades that hint at past glory. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of Ostia's significance as a gateway for goods flowing into Rome from all corners of the empire. Its strategic location made it an essential link between land and sea trade routes. Let this print serve as a window into the past – a reminder of our shared human history and the enduring legacy left behind by civilizations long gone.
