EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Temple of Antoninus and Faustina, an ancient architectural masterpiece located in the heart of Rome, Italy. Dated back to 141 AD, this temple was dedicated to the Roman emperors Antoninus Pius and Faustina the Younger. The temple, with its grand Corinthian columns and intricate friezes, is a testament to the artistic and architectural prowess of the Roman civilization during the second century AD. The temple, originally situated in the Roman Forum, underwent a significant transformation in the 17th century when it was adapted to serve as the church of San Lorenzo in Miranda. The temple's impressive columns, adorned with intricate capitals and a cornice, were skillfully integrated into the new church's design. The temple's pronaos, or the porch leading to the temple, features a stunning frieze depicting scenes from the life of the goddess Venus. The temple's columns, with their Corinthian order, are a perfect example of the classical Greek architectural influence on Roman architecture. Despite the temple's transformation into a church, its ancient history and significance remain intact. The temple now stands as a unique blend of ancient and modern, a testament to the enduring legacy of Rome's rich history. The temple, located on Via Sacra, continues to be a popular tourist destination and a source of inspiration for artists and architects alike. This print, with its intricate details and stunning visuals, offers a glimpse into the grandeur of ancient Rome and the artistic transformations that have shaped the city over the centuries.
