EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of Plate 11: equestrian statue of Titus, seen three-quarters to the right, with Mount Vesuvius erupting in the background. Created by Adriaen Collaert during the 16th century, this piece is part of his renowned series "Roman Emperors on Horseback". The image showcases a magnificent equestrian statue depicting Emperor Titus, exuding power and authority as he rides atop his noble steed. The setting is equally awe-inspiring, with Mount Vesuvius dominating the left side of the frame. Its eruption adds a dramatic touch to an already striking composition. The ancient cityscape surrounding Titus and his mount hints at Pompeii and Herculaneum's rich history within Campania, Italy. Collaert's meticulous engraving technique brings every detail to life - from the intricate folds in Titus' robes to each strand of hair on his horse's mane. This artwork not only celebrates Roman culture but also serves as a testament to Collaert's artistic prowess. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time; we can almost hear hooves pounding against cobblestone streets and feel the rumbling tremors caused by Vesuvius' eruption. It reminds us that even centuries later, art has an incredible ability to preserve moments frozen in time for generations to come.
