EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of The Appian Way near Rome, Italy, as it appeared before the turn of the 20th century. The Appian Way, one of the earliest and most important roads in the Roman Empire, stretches out before us, lined with ancient ruins and towering trees. This vintage photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back to an era of horse-drawn carriages and Victorian elegance. The sun casts a warm glow over the landscape, illuminating the cobblestone road and the intricate details of the ancient structures. In the distance, the ruins of the Aqua Claudia and Anio Novus aqueducts stand proudly, reminders of Rome's rich history and engineering prowess. The Appian Way was not only a vital transportation route but also a symbol of the Roman Empire's grandeur and power. The photograph captures the essence of the Italian countryside, with its rolling hills, lush greenery, and clear blue sky. The image is further enhanced by the use of a lantern slide, a photographic medium popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The lantern slide's unique ability to project images onto a screen makes this photograph a treasure for those interested in history, archaeology, and the art of photography. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and intrigue of Italy's past, inviting us to explore the wonders of Rome and the Appian Way during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The image is a must-have for any collection focused on Italian history, vintage photography, or travel.
