EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable ancient artifact, the Half-Litra coin depicting the Goddess Roma, dating back to 234-231 BCE. Created by an unknown artist during the Roman Empire's reign in the 3rd century BC, this bronze coin is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Ancient Rome. The close-up image allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of this historical treasure. Against a grey background, we see the profile of Goddess Roma herself, personifying power and authority. Her head is beautifully crafted with precision and skill, capturing her divine essence. The coin's letterbox format adds a unique touch to its presentation. The color palette chosen for this photograph enhances its visual appeal while staying true to its original appearance. This studio shot perfectly captures both the artistry and religious significance embedded within this small yet significant object. As we contemplate this ancient currency piece, it serves as a reminder of how financial systems have evolved over time. Coins like these were once used as legal tender in Italy during that era. Displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago's Art Centre, this print offers viewers an opportunity to connect with history through art. It invites us into an exploration of not only Roman culture but also our own understanding of religion and spirituality throughout different periods in human civilization.
