EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Rome in 1872. The engraving, created by Sydney Prior Hall and featured in The Graphic, showcases a vibrant scene filled with historical landmarks and cultural moments. In the foreground, we witness the grandeur of a dying gladiator statue, symbolizing both strength and vulnerability. As we shift our gaze towards the background, we are greeted by Prince Humbert leading a majestic march past on King's Birthday. This momentous occasion brings together Italians from all walks of life to celebrate their heritage. The street scenes depicted here offer glimpses into daily life in Rome during this era. British tourists can be seen admiring iconic statues while soaking up the rich history that permeates every corner of this ancient city. Amidst it all, the Italian flag proudly waves above these European streets, reminding us of Italy's place within the larger European Union. This image serves as a testament to Italy's deep-rooted culture and its significant role within Europe. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this snapshot from history for us to appreciate today. It allows us to travel back in time and immerse ourselves in the sights and sounds of Rome over a century ago – an experience that is truly priceless.
