EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the ancient Roman port of Ostia in the 2nd century. The image showcases a remarkable doorway and warehouse, both standing as testaments to the grandeur and architectural prowess of this once-thriving city. The arched doorway, adorned with intricate details, serves as a gateway into the bustling world of trade and commerce that characterized Ostia during its heyday. It beckons us to imagine the countless merchants who passed through it, bringing goods from distant lands to be stored in the expansive warehouse behind. The facade of this building exterior exudes strength and resilience, showcasing the mastery of Roman engineering techniques. Its weathered walls tell stories of centuries gone by, reminding us of Ostia's importance as a vital hub for maritime activities. As we gaze at this photograph, we are transported not only to an ancient city but also to Italy itself. The warm colors captured in this print evoke a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era while simultaneously highlighting the beauty and charm that still permeates throughout Lazio today. In preserving moments like these through photography, artists like CM Dixon allow us to connect with history on a profound level. This image serves as an invitation for all who view it to delve into Rome's rich past and appreciate its enduring legacy.
