EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the main street leading into Ostia, a once bustling sea-port that thrived during the first and second centuries AD. Nestled in Italy's picturesque region of Lazio, this historic location offers a glimpse into ancient Roman life. The image captures the essence of a vibrant day in Ostia, with its colorful streets and charming architecture. The photograph's composition draws you in with its perspective, inviting you to explore every lane and avenue along this cobbled road. It transports you back in time as you imagine the hustle and bustle of merchants, sailors, and locals going about their daily lives. Ostia's significance as Rome's primary port is evident from the grandeur of its main street. This thoroughfare served as a gateway for goods flowing into the heart of the empire. Over time, however, Ostia experienced decline after the fourth century AD. Mike Dixon skillfully captured this momentous scene through his lens on behalf of 1996-98 AccuSoft Inc. , preserving it for future generations to appreciate. As we gaze upon this landscape today, we are reminded of Ostia's rich history and its enduring legacy.
