EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate details of a Roman panel with a candelabra and cupid hunter in glass paste, discovered in Pompeii. The mosaic artwork, now housed at the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Naples, Italy, showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient Roman artisans.
The scene depicted on the panel is filled with mythological symbolism, featuring Cupid (Eros), the god of love, alongside a hunter. The use of glass paste adds a shimmering quality to the figures, bringing them to life against a backdrop of richly colored tiles.
As we gaze upon this piece from antiquity, we are transported back to the glory days of ancient Rome. The attention to detail and artistry evident in every tile speaks volumes about the skill and dedication of those who created it centuries ago.
This image serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of Roman civilization and its influence on art and culture throughout history. It is a testament to human creativity and ingenuity that continues to inspire awe and admiration today.
In capturing this moment frozen in time, photographer Stefano Baldini has preserved not just an artifact but a piece of our shared heritage. This print is not just an image; it is a window into another world—one that invites us to marvel at the beauty and complexity of ancient artistry.
