EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Ancient Roman Lanterns and the God Ridiculo: A Glimpse into the Past 2. This print showcases an exquisite collection of Ancient Roman metal and terracotta lanterns, each holding a unique charm and historical significance. The centerpiece of this assemblage is a comical metal lamp representing the god Ridiculo, a deity revered for his power to avert evil and bring laughter. 3. The god Ridiculo lamp, with its intricately detailed features, is surrounded by three metal candleholders, their patinaed surfaces bearing the testament of time. Each candleholder, with its elegant curves and ornate decorations, exemplifies the mastery of Roman metalworking. 4. The print also features a terracotta lantern adorned with a four-horse chariot Quadriga, a common motif in Ancient Roman art. The Quadriga symbolizes the power and wealth of the Roman Empire, with the horses in full gallop, their muscles taut and their manes flowing in the wind. 5. The print is a beautiful copperplate engraving by Pietro Ruga, based on an illustration by Lorenzo Rocceggiani from his 100 Plates of Costumes Religious, Civil and Military of the Ancient Egyptians, Etruscans, Greeks and Romans. This engraving, published by Franzetti in Rome in 1802, offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich history and culture of the ancient world. 6. The god Ridiculo lamp, with its comical and playful design, serves as a reminder of the importance of humor and joy in our lives, while the terracotta lantern with the Quadriga and the metal candleholders represent the grandeur and sophistication of the Ancient Roman civilization. This print is a testament to the enduring allure of the past and the beauty of the objects that have survived the test of time.
