EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning footstool detail with intricate bone carvings of cupids, leopards, and cornucopia. Created around 100 AD by the Romans during the 2nd century, this masterpiece is now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The footstool's exquisite craftsmanship is evident in its use of wood, bone, and glass materials. Each element has been meticulously carved to depict mythological figures such as winged cupids and powerful leopards. The cornucopia symbolizes abundance and plenty, adding an aura of luxury to this ornate piece. It is believed that some fragments used in reassembling this furniture may have originated from the imperial villa of Lucius Verus. This historical connection adds further intrigue to an already remarkable artifact. The level of detail on display here speaks volumes about Roman artistry and their penchant for decorative beauty. Every curve, every line tells a story steeped in mythology and imperial grandeur. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to an era where opulence met artistic finesse. It serves as a reminder that even everyday objects like footstools were transformed into works of art during the Roman Empire. Bridgeman Images has captured not just a mere decoration but also a glimpse into ancient history through this exceptional image from Fine Art Finder.
