EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing detail of the fresco "Apotheosis of Romulus" by Mariano Rossi. The artwork, created between 1775 and 1779, is located in the Villa Borghese in Rome, Italy. In this particular section of the ceiling fresco, we witness an extraordinary moment as Romulus is welcomed into Olympus by Jupiter himself. The scene exudes a sense of grandeur and divine presence. Romulus stands at the center, adorned with a crown symbolizing his newfound godhood. He gazes up towards Jupiter, who sits majestically on his throne surrounded by allegorical figures and heavenly beings. The painting beautifully blends elements from Roman mythology and ancient history. The lush tree branches intertwine with angelic figures while botanical motifs hint at natural sciences prevalent during that time period. Through this masterpiece, Rossi skillfully portrays both religious and mythological themes. It serves as a visual testament to the legend of Romulus and Remus while also exploring concepts such as paganism and divinity. Frank Buffetrille's expert photography allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of this stunning fresco fragment. This print not only showcases artistic brilliance but also invites viewers to delve into the rich cultural heritage preserved within Villa Borghese's walls.
