EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Temple of Jupiter" takes us back to the 18th century. Created by renowned architect Robert Adam in 1764, this print is part of his series called "Ruins of the Palace of Emperor Diocletian at Spalatro in Dalmatia". The image showcases an interior scene filled with historical significance and human stories. In a crowded room within New York City, we see poverty-stricken individuals seeking refuge. The cramped space is dominated by bunk beds ramped against each other, highlighting the dire living conditions faced by many during that era. A mother lies down on one bed, cradling her sleeping baby while a man rests beside them. Other men and women can be seen scattered throughout the room, finding solace from their daily struggles. Paul Frenzeny's meticulous illustration skillfully captures the atmosphere of exhaustion and hardship prevalent among these marginalized communities. Despite their circumstances, there is a sense of resilience as they find comfort amidst adversity. "The Temple of Jupiter" serves as both a historical document and a reminder of our shared humanity across time. It offers us an opportunity to reflect on societal inequalities that persist today while honoring those who have persevered through challenging times. This evocative print invites viewers to delve into its rich details and contemplate the complex narratives it encapsulates within its frame.
