EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning representation of an aqueduct, captured in a colored engraving from the renowned work "De Architectura" by Vitruva. Dating back to the 1st century BC, this edition was printed by Gottardo da Ponte in 1521 and is now part of a private collection. The Italian School of the 16th century beautifully brings to life the grandeur and intricacy of ancient Roman architecture through this artwork. The aqueduct stands as a testament to the empire's advanced urban planning and engineering prowess. With its towering arches and meticulous construction, this aqueduct served as both a functional structure for transporting water across vast distances and an architectural marvel that adorned the landscape. It offers us a glimpse into antiquity, allowing us to imagine what life might have been like in ancient Rome. The engraving not only captures the magnificence of this aqueduct but also provides insight into other elements of Roman civilization. From fortifications and castles to dwellings and bridges, it paints a comprehensive picture of daily life during that era. Giancarlo Costa's masterful portrayal transports viewers back in time, evoking awe at the ingenuity and beauty that characterized ancient Rome. This artwork serves as a reminder of our shared human history while showcasing the enduring power of art to capture moments frozen in time.
