The Capitoline, 1846
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that transports us back to the 19th century. Created by Calvert Jones, this stunning image captures the essence of Rome's iconic Capitoline Hill. The photograph showcases the grandeur of the hill, adorned with magnificent statues and surrounded by breathtaking landscapes. In this mesmerizing panorama, we see a man standing proudly amidst the ancient ruins and horse statues that line Piazza del Campidoglio. The male figure exudes an air of contemplation as he gazes upon Marcus Aurelius, one of Rome's revered emperors whose statue dominates the scene. Jones' masterful use of photography adds a timeless quality to this piece. The salted paper print from a paper negative technique employed here further enhances its historical charm. As we delve into "The Capitoline" we are transported not only to Rome but also to another era entirely. This artwork serves as a testament to Jones' skill in capturing both natural beauty and human heritage through his lens. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this photograph stands as a reminder of our shared history and cultural legacy. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in the rich tapestry woven by centuries past while appreciating Jones' artistic prowess in preserving these moments for generations to come.
