EDITORS COMMENTS
The Tellus Panel of the Ara Pacis Augustae, a magnificent ancient Roman monument dedicated to Peace (Pax) and the Emperor Augustus, showcases the allegorical representation of Tellus, the Roman goddess of the Earth, nursing the twin infants Romulus and Remus. Dated to 13 BC, this exquisite relief is a testament to the rich mythological and allegorical tradition of Roman art. Tellus is depicted as a woman of advanced age, seated on a throne, with a nymph holding an apple branch and a bird perched on her lap. The goddess cradles Romulus and Remus, the legendary founders of Rome, as they graze on the lap of the Earth goddess. A bull, symbolizing fertility and strength, is present in the scene, along with a sheep and grapes, representing abundance and prosperity. The intricately sculpted panel, part of the larger Ara Pacis Augustae frieze, is a masterpiece of Roman artistry. The lifelike details and naturalistic portrayal of the figures, as well as the subtle symbolism, demonstrate the skill and creativity of the ancient Roman artists. The Tellus Panel is now housed in the Museum of the Ara Pacis in Rome, Italy, where it continues to captivate visitors with its historical and artistic significance. The panel provides a glimpse into the mythological and allegorical world of ancient Rome, offering insights into the beliefs, values, and artistic traditions of the time.
