The Shepherd's Discovery - Romulus and Remus Found in the Wilderness
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This chromolitho print depicts a pivotal moment in ancient Roman mythology. The shepherd Faustulus, portrayed by the European School of the 19th century, stumbles upon two abandoned babies amidst the untamed wilderness. These helpless infants turn out to be none other than Romulus and Remus, legendary founders of Rome. The scene is filled with a sense of awe and wonder as Faustulus gazes down at the newborn twins he has just discovered. Their innocent faces radiate hope for an extraordinary destiny that awaits them. This educational card, created during the late 19th or early 20th century, serves as a visual reminder of this timeless tale. The image captures not only the rescuer's compassion but also highlights themes of brotherhood and resilience. It symbolizes how even in their vulnerable state, these brothers would grow up to shape one of history's greatest civilizations. Through its vibrant colors and intricate details, this chromolitho print transports us back to ancient Rome—a time when shepherds played unexpected roles in shaping destinies. As we gaze upon this artwork from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of our own capacity for discovery and nurturing potential within ourselves and others. This piece transcends mere artistic representation; it invites us to reflect on our shared human experience—our ability to find strength amid adversity—and reminds us that greatness can emerge from even humble beginnings.
