EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Etruscan civilization - the bronze sculpture known as "The magistrate of Perugia Aulus Metellus says the Speaker or the Arringatore". Created in the 1st century BC, this exquisite artwork was discovered in Pila, Italy and now resides in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Florence. Standing at an impressive height of 179 cm, this bronze figure portrays Aulus Metellus, also referred to as The Orator (L'Arringatore). The intricate detailing on his toga is particularly highlighted in this close-up shot. Every fold and crease seems to come alive, showcasing the craftsmanship and skill of Etruscan artistry. Aulus Metellus was not only a magistrate but also a powerful speaker who held great influence over Perugia during ancient times. This sculpture captures his commanding presence and eloquence through its lifelike depiction. It offers us a glimpse into the political and cultural significance that these figures held within Etruscan society. As we marvel at this masterpiece from centuries ago, it serves as a reminder of how art can transcend time. Its preservation allows us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also gain insights into an ancient civilization that once thrived. Thanks to photographers like Luisa Ricciarini, we are able to experience such historical treasures even if we cannot physically visit them ourselves.
