EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Ponte Salario, or Sabine, 1833" takes us on a journey back in time to ancient Rome. The etching with brown wash technique used by Agostino Tofanelli beautifully captures the essence of this Roman bridge that crosses the Aniene River. Engraved by Pietro Fontana, this artwork is part of the Recueil des vues au bister dessinees et lavees par Callimachus collection, which showcases memories of antiquities and curiosities from Rome and its surroundings. It depicts the Ponte Salario or Sabin Bridge, associated with the salt trade between Romans and Sabines. The image reveals a scene filled with classical architecture and historical significance. A fisherman can be seen standing on the bridge, casting his line into the river below. The watchtower stands tall as a silent witness to centuries gone by. Rebuilt in 565 AD by Narses, this Roman marvel has stood strong throughout history. Its presence on Via Salaria further emphasizes its importance as a vital trade route for salt transportation. This exquisite engraving from The Stapleton Collection allows us to appreciate not only the artistic skill involved but also transports us to an era where fishing was not just a pastime but an essential livelihood. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of our connection to history and how even today's modern world owes much gratitude to these architectural wonders of antiquity.
