EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Denarius coin from 121 BCE, depicting the majestic Goddess Roma. Created by an unknown artist during the ancient Roman era, this artifact is a testament to the rich history and artistry of that time. The coin's intricate details are beautifully captured in this close-up shot, revealing the fine craftsmanship involved in its creation. The image features a grey background that accentuates the coin's silver color and adds to its overall allure. The obverse side of the coin portrays Roma herself, personifying Rome as a powerful female figure. She stands tall with her head adorned by an elegant helmet, symbolizing strength and protection. Roma is depicted riding on a magnificent chariot pulled by two noble horses, representing power and victory. This equestrian scene highlights both her divine status and Rome's military prowess during this period. As we admire this remarkable piece of currency, we are transported back in time to ancient Italy when it was still known as the Roman Empire. This relic serves not only as a means of exchange but also as a religious symbol deeply rooted in mythology and spirituality. Displayed at an art gallery or institute like Chicago's Art Institute, this photograph allows us to appreciate one small fragment of our vast cultural heritage – reminding us of how far we have come while honoring those who came before us.
