EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Denarius coin from 128 BCE, depicting the powerful Goddess Roma. Created by an unknown artist during ancient Roman times, this artifact is a testament to the rich history and artistry of that era. The coin's obverse side features a close-up image of the goddess herself, her head adorned with a magnificent helmet symbolizing war and protection. Her piercing eyes exude strength and determination, while her regal dress signifies her status as a female personification of Rome. The background in shades of grey adds depth to the image, allowing us to focus on every intricate detail. The letterbox format enhances its panoramic appeal, drawing us into the world of ancient Rome. This piece not only serves as currency but also represents religious beliefs and mythology prevalent during that time. The equestrian theme depicted on this denarius further emphasizes Rome's military might and dominance over other nations. With horses pulling a chariot in full armor, it evokes images of epic battles fought for conquest and glory. As we admire this remarkable work at the Art Institute Chicago's Ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium collection, we are reminded of how art transcends time; it connects us to our past while igniting our imagination about what once was. Let this photograph transport you back to ancient Italy where legends were born and empires thrived under the watchful eye of Goddess Roma herself.
