EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the Statue of the Barbarian King Imprisoned, a classical sculpture housed in Rome's renowned Capitoline Museum, specifically in the Giardino Cesi. The statue, a masterpiece of ancient Roman civilization, is a copperplate engraving after an illustration by G. Petrini, created by Pietro Paolo Montagnani-Mirabili in 1820. The statue portrays a barbarian king, defeated and subdued, with his arms bound behind his back and his head bowed in submission. The intricate details of the king's muscular physique, his flowing beard, and the intricate folds of his clothing are beautifully captured in the engraving, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship of the artist. The Giardino Cesi, located within the Capitoline Museum complex, is a tranquil oasis in the heart of Rome, where visitors can admire a collection of ancient sculptures and artifacts. This particular statue, with its powerful depiction of the triumph of Roman civilization over the barbarian world, is a standout piece in the garden. The Statue of the Barbarian King Imprisoned is a testament to the enduring legacy of ancient Roman art and the rich history of the Capitoline Museum. The intricate copperplate engraving, produced by Montagnani-Mirabili and Petrini, serves as a faithful representation of the original sculpture, allowing us to appreciate its beauty and significance even from a distance.
