EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of Roman art and architecture in Tunisia, specifically at the ancient site of Dougga. The Capitol, dedicated to the powerful gods Jupiter, Juno, and Minerva, stands as a testament to the rich history and mythology of this region.
Declared a World Heritage Site in 1997 by UNESCO, Dougga's Capitol is a marvel of Roman civilization dating back to the 2nd century AD. The intricate Corinthian columns, detailed entablature, and grand pediment all speak to the skill and craftsmanship of ancient architects.
As you gaze upon this image, you can almost feel the presence of these ancient deities who were once worshipped within these sacred walls. The portico leading into the temple invites you to step back in time and explore a world filled with religion, mythological stories, and historical significance.
The ruins of Dougga's Capitol serve as a reminder of Africa's age-old connection to classical antiquity and its enduring legacy in archeology. This print is not just a piece of art but a window into a bygone era that continues to captivate us with its beauty and mystery.
