EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases Roman and Greek metal candelabras from the 19th century. The print, created by Lorenzo Roccheggiani in 1802, depicts three exquisite candelabras that were housed in prominent museums of the time. The first candelabra is found in the Kircherian Museum, displaying intricate craftsmanship and a timeless elegance. The second one represents a Greek metal candelabra, highlighting the influence of ancient Greece on artistic design. Lastly, there is another metal candelabra located in the Museo Portici or Portici Museum. Pietro Ruga skillfully engraved this copperplate illustration based on Roccheggiani's original artwork for his book "100 Plates of Costumes Religious, Civil and Military of the Ancient Egyptians, Etruscans, Greeks and Romans". This remarkable piece allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the historical significance of these ancient objects. These ornate candlesticks serve as both functional lighting fixtures and decorative elements within interior design. They symbolize an era when artistry was valued as much as functionality. With their detailed engravings and delicate features, they transport us back to antiquity while adding a touch of sophistication to any space. Through this enchanting print captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can admire these remnants of Roman and Greek culture that continue to inspire awe even centuries later.
