EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Paul Seheult captures the enchanting Boca Della Verite, also known as the Mouth of Truth, located in Rome, Italy. Situated at the church of Santa Maria In Cosmedin, this ancient artifact is believed to be a 4th-century drain cover that has become steeped in legend and folklore. The image showcases the intricate details of this Roman sculpture which depicts a face with an open mouth. According to medieval tradition, it was believed that if someone told a lie while placing their hand inside the mouth, it would close shut and sever their hand as punishment for dishonesty. As one gazes upon this remarkable piece of architecture, they are transported back in time to an era filled with mystery and superstition. The Boca Della Verite stands as a testament to both religious devotion and human fascination with mythological tales. Tourists from all over the world flock to witness this iconic symbol of truth-seeking during their visit to Rome. Its presence within the portico wall adds an air of intrigue and reverence to Santa Maria In Cosmedin. Paul Seheult's skillful photography allows us to appreciate not only the historical significance but also the artistic beauty inherent in this renowned Italian landmark.
