EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable ancient artifact - a coin portraying Emperor Tetricus I, dating back to the year 268. The creator of this intriguing piece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery and allure to its historical significance. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the fine details and craftsmanship that went into creating this bronze coin. With its vibrant colors and intricate design, it serves as a testament to the artistic prowess of the ancient Roman civilization. Emperor Tetricus I was a prominent figure in the 3rd century Roman Empire, ruling over Gaul (modern-day France) during his reign. This coinage served as both currency and propaganda for his regime, depicting his authoritative profile on one side (obverse). The letterbox format enhances our focus on Tetricus' head against a grey background, emphasizing his regal stature. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness not only the financial system but also the rich cultural heritage of Ancient Rome. It is through such artifacts that we gain insight into their society's values and traditions. Displayed within an art gallery or institute like Chicago's Art Institute, this photograph invites viewers to delve deeper into history's mysteries while appreciating the beauty found in even everyday objects from centuries past.
