EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1875 by Giorgio Sommer, transports us back to the ancient city of Pompeii. The image showcases the haunting ruins of the house of Cornelius Rufus, a prominent figure during the Roman Empire. As we gaze upon this sepia-toned print, we are immediately struck by the sheer magnitude of destruction that befell this once thriving city. The crumbling columns and scattered rubble serve as a poignant reminder of the devastating volcanic eruption that buried Pompeii under layers of ash in 79 AD. Amidst the chaos and decay, there is an undeniable beauty to be found within these ruins. A lone statue stands defiantly amidst its surroundings, a testament to both human resilience and artistic craftsmanship. The intricate details captured in this photograph allow us to appreciate not only the architectural marvels but also glimpse into daily life during ancient times. It is as if time has stood still within these walls; we can almost imagine inhabitants going about their routines centuries ago. Giorgio Sommer's skillful composition captures both the grandeur and fragility inherent in archaeological sites like Pompeii. This print serves as a window into history, inviting us to reflect on our own impermanence while marveling at humanity's enduring legacy through art and architecture.
