EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Velarium of the Colosseum in Rome, a remarkable ancient site that still stands as a testament to Roman engineering and grandeur. The artist, A Lorenzini, skillfully captures the essence of this iconic structure with vibrant colors and intricate details. The Velarium was an enormous awning system composed of stone markers, which were once abundant in number but now only five remain. These markers were used to support a massive canopy that provided shade for spectators during events held at the Colosseum. This ingenious architectural feature allowed thousands of Romans to enjoy spectacles such as gladiatorial contests and animal hunts without being exposed to the scorching sun. In this print, we can see glimpses of ancient Rome's bustling streets surrounding the Colosseum. The image transports us back in time, immersing us in the atmosphere of this historic city. It serves as a reminder of Rome's rich cultural heritage and its significant contributions to art and architecture. This photograph is part of AccuSoft Inc. 's collection from 1996-98, demonstrating their commitment to preserving and sharing important historical images like this one. As we admire this stunning artwork by A Lorenzini, let us appreciate not only his talent but also the enduring legacy left behind by ancient civilizations like Rome.
