EDITORS COMMENTS
This image depicts the legendary tale of Romulus and Remus, the twin brothers who are said to have been the founding figures of the Roman civilization. According to ancient Roman mythology, the twins were left to die as infants along the banks of the Tiber River. However, they were discovered and fostered by a kindly she-wolf, who took them under her care and suckled them with her own milk. The wolf, a symbol of protection and nurturing, played a pivotal role in the survival of the brothers. The image of Romulus and Remus being suckled by the wolf is a powerful representation of the themes of protection, nurturing, and the unexpected sources of care and support in life. The scene is believed to have taken place around 780 BC, during the early days of Roman history. The story of Romulus and Remus is deeply ingrained in the Roman folk lore and has been a source of inspiration for countless works of art, literature, and architecture throughout history. The image of Romulus and Remus being suckled by the wolf is a testament to the enduring power of mythology and the human spirit. It is a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always hope and the possibility of a brighter future. The image also underscores the idea that the most unlikely sources can provide us with the strength and support we need to overcome adversity and achieve great things. This historical print, with its intricate details and evocative imagery, offers a glimpse into the rich and complex world of ancient Roman mythology and the enduring themes that continue to resonate with us today.
