EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Temple of Antoninus and Faustina" takes us back in time to ancient Rome, showcasing the remarkable architecture and rich history of this iconic landmark. Published in 1797 by Matthew Dubourg, a British artist known for his exquisite etchings and hand-colored aquatints, this piece is a testament to his artistic prowess. The image transports us to the heart of Rome's ruins, where the Temple of Antoninus and Faustina stands majestically against the backdrop of a serene landscape. The temple's grandeur is accentuated by its towering columns and intricate detailing, reflecting the skillful craftsmanship that characterized Roman architecture. Intriguingly, amidst this architectural marvel, we catch sight of an unexpected element - a donkey playfully chasing after a man. This whimsical scene adds an element of surprise and lightheartedness to an otherwise solemn setting. Dubourg's masterful use of color brings life to the image as vibrant hues enhance every detail with precision. The hand-tinted aquatint technique employed here further emphasizes the beauty and intricacy captured within each stroke. As we gaze upon this artwork at the Art Institute Chicago or any other art center fortunate enough to possess it, we are transported not only through space but also through time. We are reminded once again that art has the power to transcend boundaries and connect us with our shared human heritage.
