This handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Corsi from Giulio Ferrario's "Il Costume Antico e Moderno" published in Florence in 1843, offers a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of Roman legionaries as they build fortifications. The image, derived from Trajan's Column, depicts soldiers in their intricately designed armour, hard at work constructing the defensive walls of their encampment. One legionary wields an axe to fell trees for timber, while another carries baskets filled with lime, a crucial ingredient for mortar. The scene is set against the backdrop of ancient Rome, with the obelisk of Roma and the apotheosis of Emperor Antoninus Pius and his wife Faustina visible in the sky above. The winged Genius of Campus Martius, the god of military strength, hovers overhead, watching over the soldiers' labours. The meticulous detail of the engraving allows us to appreciate the intricacies of Roman military attire. Each soldier's shield bears the emblem of its legion, while the iconic Roman helmets and armour are adorned with various decorative elements. The image also offers a glimpse into the historical fashion and cultural practices of the ancient world. This illustration is a testament to the rich historical and artistic heritage of Rome, providing a unique window into the past. The meticulous craftsmanship of Corsi and Giulio Ferrario's work continues to captivate and inspire scholars, historians, and enthusiasts alike.
