EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Portrait of Augustus" a remarkable marble sculpture that is housed in the prestigious National Etruscan Museum of Chiusi. Crafted during the Imperial Period, this Roman artwork dates back to the 1st century AD, offering us a glimpse into ancient civilization. The photograph itself was captured between 1920 and 1930 by Alinari, Fratelli, renowned for their expertise in capturing historical masterpieces. The image beautifully highlights various aspects of this magnificent sculpture: its head, parts of the body, and its strikingly nude yet incredibly human male form. Augustus himself was an influential political figure whose portrait symbolizes his significant social status within Roman society. As one of history's most famous figures, he played a pivotal role in shaping the empire and leaving behind an indelible mark on European history. Through this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness not only the artistry but also gain insights into ancient populations' rich history. It offers us an opportunity to appreciate both the artistic mastery displayed by Roman artists during their imperial period as well as understand more about their culture and societal structure. This print serves as a testament to Alinari's exceptional ability to capture historical artifacts with precision and finesse. Its significance lies not only in preserving our collective heritage but also reminding us of our connection to past civilizations that have shaped our present world.
