EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable coin from ancient Rome, depicting the revered Goddess Roma. Created in 77 BCE by an unknown artist, this first-century BC artifact is a testament to the rich history and artistic prowess of the Roman Empire. The image captures a close-up view of the obverse side of the coin, revealing intricate details and vibrant colors. The goddess herself is depicted with regal poise, her head adorned with a majestic crown. Her divine presence exudes power and authority as she personifies both the city of Rome and its empire. Set against a serene grey background, this studio shot allows us to appreciate every delicate feature on this silver currency. The feline companion at Roma's feet adds an intriguing element to this composition, symbolizing strength and protection. It serves as a reminder of how animals were often incorporated into ancient Roman art as significant representations. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing piece, we are transported back in time to witness not only exceptional craftsmanship but also gain insight into religious beliefs and cultural values during that era. This photograph was taken at the Art Institute Chicago's Arts of Ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium collection—an institution dedicated to preserving heritage art for future generations. Through this image captured by an anonymous photographer, we can marvel at the enduring legacy left behind by those who once inhabited ancient Rome—a testament to their creativity, spirituality, and lasting impact on our world today.
