EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Constantine tracing the boundaries of the new capital" we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in history. The image, captured by John Harris Valda, showcases Emperor Constantine as he meticulously marks the boundaries of his grand new capital. Dressed in elaborate Roman attire, Constantine stands tall and authoritative amidst a group of Italian soldiers. His regal presence is accentuated by the backdrop of the vast sea behind him, symbolizing both power and conquest. With weapons at their sides, these soldiers serve as a reminder that this endeavor was not without its challenges. The engraving beautifully captures the determination on Constantine's face as he carefully traces lines on a map or perhaps directly onto the ground itself. This act signifies his vision for an empire that would stand strong for centuries to come. This historical moment holds immense significance as it marked the birth of Constantinople (modern-day Istanbul), which would go on to become one of Europe's most influential cities. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but marvel at how one man's ambition forever shaped our world. Bridgeman Images has once again provided us with an extraordinary glimpse into our past through this stunning artwork from their Fine Art Finder collection.
