EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image, a Greek breastplate adorned with intricate gold detailing takes center stage, flanked by an assortment of ancient Roman weapons. The breastplate, discovered in Nola, Naples, showcases the fusion of Greek and Roman artistic influences. The gold bauble at the front of the breastplate suggests that it was once worn by a young Roman noble, highlighting the prestige and wealth associated with ancient Roman military ranks. The shield, helmet, lance, bow, and quiver depicted in the image are remnants of a bygone era, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. The shield, with its intricate designs and raised rim, would have provided essential protection for the warrior in battle. The helmet, with its distinctive crest, would have shielded the head and neck from enemy attacks. The lance, a versatile weapon used for both thrusting and throwing, was a staple of ancient Roman infantry. The bow and quiver, essential components of a Roman archer's kit, would have allowed for long-range attacks and surprise strikes. This image is a 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. The meticulous attention to detail in the engraving allows us to appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of these ancient artifacts, transporting us back in time to the rich and complex world of ancient Greece and Rome.
