EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative postcard, captured in the 1910s, showcases the awe-inspiring Mausoleum of Hadrian, also known as Castel Sant'Angelo, nestled in the heart of Rome, Italy. The image transports us back in time, as we gaze upon this architectural marvel that has stood the test of centuries. The Mausoleum, built between 134 and 139 AD as a tomb for the Roman Emperor Hadrian and his family, is a towering cylindrical edifice that rises majestically from the Parco Adriano. Its distinctive design, which resembles a large, inverted pyramid, is a testament to the grandeur and power of ancient Rome. The mausoleum's rich history is intertwined with the religious and cultural fabric of Rome. In the 8th century, it became the site of a miraculous appearance of the Archangel Michael, who is said to have appeared atop the mausoleum to signal the end of the bubonic plague. As a result, the castle was renamed Castel Sant'Angelo, which translates to "Castle of Saint Angel." In the background of the postcard, the dome of St. Peter's Basilica and the towering structures of the Vatican City can be seen, further emphasizing the central role of the Mausoleum in the religious and architectural landscape of Rome. The papal basilica, with its iconic dome, stands as a symbol of the enduring power and influence of the Catholic Church. As we admire this stunning postcard, we are reminded of the rich history and cultural significance of Rome and its architectural gems, which continue to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world.
