EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history: the Combat between Romans and Barbarians in a poplar-wood plaster mold of the Trajan Column. Commissioned in 1860 by Napoleon III, this extraordinary artwork now finds its home at the Museo della Civilt Romana in Rome. The photograph was taken in 1938, capturing the intricate details and grandeur of this nineteenth-century masterpiece. The scene depicted is one of intense battle, showcasing armed forces from both sides engaged in fierce combat. Every soldier's attire reflects the fashion and clothing style of ancient times, with elaborate headdresses and accessories adding to their barbaric allure. Amidst this chaotic battlefield stands a majestic poplar tree, symbolizing nature's presence amidst human conflict. Its towering stature adds an ethereal touch to the composition while reminding us that even amid war, life continues to flourish. This photograph not only captures a pivotal moment in history but also highlights Europe's rich artistic heritage during the first and second millennium A. D. The relief arts and handicrafts from the nineteenth century are showcased here with meticulous attention to detail. Alinari Fratelli masterfully captured this image, preserving it for generations to come. It serves as a testament to humanity's fascination with warfare throughout time while offering insight into ancient populations' histories. As we gaze upon this stunning print, we are transported back centuries ago when Roman legions clashed against formidable barbarian foes on distant battlefields. It reminds us of our shared past and encourages us to reflect on how far we have come as civilizations since those tumultuous times.
