EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Osuna Bronzes, a remarkable set of five bronze tablets that contain ancient Roman laws known as Lex Ursonensis or Urso Law. These historical artifacts were discovered in Osuna, a city located in Sevilla, Spain. Each tablet is adorned with intricate engravings and fragments of legal text, providing us with invaluable insights into the legal system of ancient Rome. Dating back to the 1st century BC, these bronzes are a testament to the enduring legacy of Roman civilization. The fragments found on one of the tablets specifically pertain to the Law of Genitiva Julia Colony, shedding light on how laws were formulated and enforced during that time period. Displayed at Madrid's National Archaeological Museum, this photograph captures not only the beauty and craftsmanship of these bronze tablets but also their historical significance. The horizontal composition allows us to appreciate every detail and stroke of writing etched onto their surfaces. The artist behind this stunning image is Santiago Ortega who skillfully captured both the color and texture of these ancient artifacts. As we gaze upon this photograph print, we are transported back in time to an era where law played a crucial role in shaping society. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, our understanding and appreciation for history continue to evolve through such archaeological treasures.
