EDITORS COMMENTS
This colored engraving showcases Theodor Mommsen (1817-1903), a renowned German jurist, historian, archaeologist, and politician of the 19th and early 20th centuries. Mommsen's intellectual prowess and contributions to various fields earned him international recognition. He is best known for his groundbreaking work in Roman history, particularly his "Römische Geschichte" (Roman History), a comprehensive and influential account of Rome's political and cultural development. Mommsen's expertise extended beyond history, as he also made significant strides in archaeology, jurisprudence, and journalism. He was a contemporary of influential European thinkers such as Friedrich Nietzsche and Karl Marx. In 1902, Mommsen was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature for his services to German letters and the promotion of peace through his historical research. In this portrait, Mommsen is depicted wearing a suit and glasses, with his arms crossed in a confident pose. The cross on the wall behind him is a symbol of his Christian faith. The engraving's vibrant colors add depth and character to the image, capturing the essence of a brilliant and influential scholar and statesman of his time.
