EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the ancient Roman city of Timgad, located in present-day Algeria. The image showcases a remarkable mosaic housed within the Museum Neptune, depicting the powerful god Neptune riding on a majestic chariot with his team of horses. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this mosaic are truly awe-inspiring, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship and artistic talent prevalent during that era. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we can't help but marvel at how it has managed to withstand the test of time. Timgad itself was founded by Emperor Trajan in AD 100 as a military colony and quickly grew into an important commercial hub. This archaeological site is renowned for its well-preserved ruins that offer valuable insights into Roman urban planning and architecture. Through this photograph, we are transported to a different world - one where emperors ruled mighty civilizations and gods were worshipped fervently. It serves as a poignant reminder of our rich historical heritage and encourages us to appreciate the cultural treasures left behind by our ancestors. Thanks to EMD/Then and Now Images/Heritage Images, who captured this momentous artwork in December 2007, we have been granted access to witness history frozen in time. Let us cherish these glimpses into our past so that future generations may also be inspired by their beauty and significance.
