EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable ancient artifact, the Dupondius coin portraying Emperor Hadrian. Created by an unknown artist during the 2nd century AD, this bronze coin is a testament to the rich history of Ancient Rome. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate details and craftsmanship of this piece. The obverse side features a striking portrait of Emperor Hadrian himself, who reigned from 117 to 138 AD. His regal countenance exudes power and authority, reflecting his influential role in shaping the Roman Empire. The use of color adds depth and dimension to the image, enhancing our connection with this historical relic. Against a grey background, the vibrant hues bring life to both the coin and its subject. As we gaze upon this ancient currency, we are transported back in time to an era where coins were not only symbols of wealth but also reflections of political power and cultural identity. This Dupondius serves as a tangible link between past and present, reminding us of Rome's enduring legacy. Displayed in an art gallery at The Art Institute Chicago's Arts of Ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium collection, this photograph invites viewers into a world steeped in heritage and tradition. It offers us a glimpse into one man's reign that left an indelible mark on history - Publius Aelius Hadrianus Caesar Traianus Augustus - Emperor Hadrian.
