EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Vespasian, the renowned Roman emperor who reigned from 69 AD until his demise in 79 AD. The portrait is a remarkable piece of artwork from a Dutch edition of Suetonius' works, published in 1691. Suetonius, an esteemed Roman historian, is best known for his influential book "De Vita Caesarum" or "The Twelve Caesars" which delves into the lives of Rome's emperors. The engraver responsible for this stunning illustration is Joannes Schildius, as indicated by the Latin text at the bottom. The editor of this historical masterpiece was Johannes G. Graevius, a German philologist whose expertise contributed to its authenticity and accuracy. Vividly capturing Vespasian's regal presence and commanding aura, this monochrome bust portrays him with great attention to detail. Adorned with military arms and symbols representing imperial power, it symbolizes his role as ruler during a tumultuous period marked by civil wars within the Roman Empire. Displayed within an ornate border that adds elegance to the composition, this artwork transports us back to ancient Rome and offers a glimpse into one of history's most significant figures. Todd-White Art Photography has flawlessly captured every intricate detail in this photograph print, making it an invaluable addition to any collection exploring classical antiquity and Roman history.
