EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Portrait of Ovid" an exquisite engraving created by the English School in the 19th century. The portrait, now part of a private collection, immortalizes Publius Ovidius Naso, better known as Ovid, a renowned Roman poet. The image captures Ovid's dignified presence with his head adorned by laurel wreaths, symbolizing his status as one of history's greatest poets. His intense gaze seems to penetrate through time itself, inviting us to delve into the ancient world of poetry and literature. Drawn by Burneius and expertly engraved by Robert Cooper, this masterpiece was published in 1821 by Delphin and Variorum Classics. It is a testament to the enduring legacy of Ovid's works that continue to captivate readers even centuries later. As we admire this striking portrait, we are transported back to ancient Rome where poetry thrived as an art form. This print serves not only as a visual delight but also as a reminder of the profound impact that literature has on shaping our understanding of history. With its rich historical context and artistic finesse, this "Portrait of Ovid" offers us a glimpse into the life and genius behind one of Rome's most celebrated poets.
