EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Applique de porte en bronze, trouvee a Capoue" takes us back to the 19th century with its exquisite depiction of a bronze door applique found in Capua. The French School artist skillfully captures the intricate details of this ancient artifact, showcasing its gilt bronze beauty. The divine presence emanating from this piece is undeniable as it portrays various gods and goddesses. Their heavenly forms are expertly rendered, evoking a sense of awe and reverence. This artwork transports us to an era where deities were revered and worshipped. The engraving serves as an illustration for Charles Garnier and A Ammann's book "L Habitation Humaine" published by Hachette in 1892. It offers a glimpse into the architectural wonders of that time, specifically row housing or suburban houses adorned with such magnificent door appliques. Through this image, we catch a glimpse into Roman life during antiquity – their living spaces, dwellings, and accommodations. The main focus remains on the grand entrance door or portal building that leads to these abodes. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical gem within their private collection. Its inclusion here allows us to appreciate not only the artistry behind it but also gain insight into our human history through visual storytelling.
