EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a gold multiple (reverse) of Emperor Augustus, the renowned ruler from 31 BC to AD 14. The intricate design depicts the goddess Diana, known for her association with hunting and war. With Roman numerals inscribed as IMP XV on both sides of Diana and SICIL below her, this ancient artifact exudes a sense of grandeur and historical significance. The image captures the essence of female strength and empowerment through its portrayal of Diana wielding a bow and arrow. Her poised stance reflects her prowess in archery, symbolizing not only her skill but also her role as the goddess of sport. Dressed in an elegant toga, she personifies grace and beauty amidst the chaos of battle. Displayed at Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Naples, Campania, Italy, this photograph by eRaffaello Bencini offers viewers a glimpse into ancient Roman culture. Its timeless appeal is further enhanced by its out-of-copyright status.
