EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a bronze Sestertius of Severus Alexander, an esteemed Roman Emperor who reigned from 222 to 235 AD. The intricate details of this ancient coin are beautifully captured, allowing us to appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship of the time. In this profile bust, Severus Alexander's regal features are immortalized in bronze. His strong jawline and noble expression reveal a leader who exuded power and authority. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but be transported back to ancient Rome, imagining the weight of history that rests upon this currency. The Sestertius itself was a significant form of currency during the Roman Empire. This particular coin would have circulated throughout the empire as a symbol of wealth and prosperity. Holding it in one's hand would have been akin to holding a piece of history. Thanks to photographer Nicolo Orsi Battaglini's skillful lens, we can now admire this remarkable sculpture from afar. The attention to detail is astounding; every line and contour tells a story about both the emperor himself and the artistic talents that flourished during his reign. Displayed at Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Florence, Italy, this photograph invites us into its world - one where emperors ruled with iron fists while simultaneously fostering cultural achievements that continue to inspire awe today.
