EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the fresco "Narcissus at Fountain" from the House of Loreio Tiburtino in Pompeii, Campania. Created during the Roman civilization in the 1st century AD, this artwork depicts Narcissus, a mythological figure and son of the river god Cephisus and nymph Liriope. The scene captures Narcissus gazing at his own reflection in the water until his eventual demise. The vibrant colors and intricate details of this mural bring to life an ancient tale that has captivated audiences for centuries. The artist's skillful brushstrokes beautifully convey Narcissus' contemplative expression as he becomes consumed by his own image. This piece not only serves as a testament to Roman artistry but also delves into themes such as narcissism, pride, and self-reflection. It reminds us of the dangers associated with excessive self-love and vanity. As we admire this remarkable work of art, we are transported back in time to ancient Rome, where wall paintings like these adorned homes and public spaces. This photograph allows us to appreciate both its historical significance and artistic brilliance. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured every nuance of this masterpiece through their high-quality print.
