1. Title: "Ascent to the Afterlife: A Marble Sarcophagus from the Severan Period Depicting Flying Erotes and the Clipeus Portrait with the Earth and Ocean at the Base" This exquisite marble sarcophagus, dated between 190-200 AD, is a stunning example of Roman art from the Severan period, now on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, United States. The sarcophagus showcases a captivating scene of the deceased's ascent to the afterlife, with a reclined figure receiving the blessings of various gods and goddesses. At the center, the clipeus portrait features a bearded god, possibly Fortuna or Jupiter, holding a clipeus, a military shield, symbolizing protection and divine favor. Above, a cycle of mythological figures unfolds, with two winged Erotes, or Cupids, delicately holding the shield and offering a cloak to the deceased. The celestial scene continues with the gods of heaven, including Apollo, Mercury, and Venus, who preside over the realms of the sun, commerce, and love, respectively. The Earth and the Ocean are depicted at the bottom, symbolizing the continuity of life and the connection between the mortal and divine worlds. The intricate relief sculpture, with its masterful execution and vivid details, offers a glimpse into the rich mythological and historical context of ancient Rome. This magnificent sarcophagus not only represents the artistic achievements of the Roman Empire but also serves as a testament to the enduring fascination with the mysteries of life, death, and the divine.
