EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient artistry - the Portrait head of emperor Trajan. Crafted from Pentelic marble, this exquisite sculpture dates back to AD 78-117 and was discovered in Athens. Standing on an elegant pedestal, the front view of this majestic statue allows us to delve into the enigmatic world of Emperor Trajan. Despite its bad condition, this fine art sculpture still emanates a sense of grandeur and power. The intricate details etched onto his face reveal a male likeness that is both commanding and dignified. As we gaze upon his chiseled features, we are transported back to the glorious days of ancient Greece in the 2nd century. The vertical composition accentuates every line and contour on Trajan's visage, highlighting the skillful craftsmanship employed by its creator. This portrait head serves as a testament to human ingenuity and artistic prowess during that era. Displayed indoors with no people around, it stands as a silent witness to history's passage. Its presence evokes curiosity about Trajan's reign and leaves us pondering over what stories these worn-out features could tell if they could speak. Thanks to Universal Images Group (UIG), we can now admire this extraordinary artifact from afar, appreciating its significance within our shared cultural heritage without any commercial use intentions.
