EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic exterior of The Pantheon, a remarkable architectural masterpiece in ancient Rome. Taken by Giovanni Battista Piranesi in the 18th century, this image captures the grandeur and beauty of this iconic structure. The Pantheon, originally built by Marcus Agrippa during the reign of Augustus, now serves as a Christian church called Santa Maria ad Martyres. Its impressive pediment and portico draw attention to its classical Roman design, while the background people add a sense of scale and liveliness to the scene. Piranesi's etching skillfully captures every intricate detail of The Pantheon's facade, highlighting its historical significance and architectural features. This print is part of his renowned series "Vedute di Roma" which aimed to document various landmarks in Italy. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to experience ancient Rome through Piranesi's lens. It reminds us of our rich cultural heritage and invites us to appreciate the enduring beauty that stands before us. Displayed at The Met museum, this print not only preserves an important piece of history but also serves as a testament to Piranesi's artistic talent.
