EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Villani Achille in the 1950s or 1960s, showcases the magnificent Temple of Roma and Augustus in Pula, Croatia. The temple itself dates back to the first century AD during the Augustan period of Roman rule. The image captures the grandeur of this ancient structure with its impressive portico, intricate column capitals, and beautifully preserved architectural elements. The photographer's keen eye highlights every detail - from the decorative sections to the imposing tympanum that adorns its entrance. Situated amidst a backdrop of archaeological sites and excavations, this temple stands as a testament to Europe's rich ancient civilization. Its religious significance is evident through its well-preserved staircase leading up to its sacred interior. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back in time to an era where non-Christian religions held great influence. The Temple of Roma and Augustus serves as a reminder of Rome's imperial might and artistic brilliance. Villani Achille's expert composition allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the historical importance of this architectural marvel. Through his lens, we can almost hear echoes from centuries past - whispers of prayers offered within these hallowed walls. This photograph is more than just a work of art; it is a window into our collective human history. It invites us to ponder on how civilizations rise and fall while leaving behind traces for future generations to explore and admire.
