EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a vibrant street scene in the ancient Roman city of Ostia, dating back to the 2nd century. The image showcases the remarkable architecture and bustling atmosphere of this historic port town. On the left side of the street, a row of shops can be seen, offering a glimpse into daily life during this period. The photograph's color adds depth and realism to the scene, allowing us to imagine what it must have been like to walk these very streets centuries ago. The perspective draws our attention down the road, inviting us to explore further into this fascinating city. Ostia Antica, located near Rome in Italy's Lazio region, is renowned for its well-preserved ruins that offer invaluable insights into Roman civilization. This particular snapshot by CM Dixon beautifully encapsulates one aspect of Ostia's rich history – its thriving commercial center. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time and reminded of how cities evolve and change over centuries. It serves as a reminder that even though civilizations may rise and fall, their legacies endure through photographs like these – capturing moments frozen in time for generations to come.
