EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of ancient Roman art and civilization, showcasing a remarkable marble base known as the "Casali Altar". Located in the Vatican Museums, Vatican City, this exquisite artwork is adorned with a dedication by Tiberius Claudius Faventinus. The centerpiece of this altar is an intricately detailed relief depicting two legendary figures from Greek mythology - Hector and Achilles. The scene portrays these iconic characters engaged in an intense battle, surrounded by people participating in a grand procession. Their majestic presence evokes a sense of awe and reverence. Dating back to the Imperial Period (II-III century AD), this masterpiece offers us a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Europe's ancient civilizations. It serves as a testament to the artistic prowess achieved during that era. In addition to its mythological significance, this photograph also showcases various elements of daily life during ancient times. One can observe individuals dressed in period costumes, providing valuable insights into fashion trends prevalent at that time. Furthermore, another intriguing aspect captured within this image is an ox-drawn two-wheeled carriage used for transportation along land routes. This mode of transport was common during the Greco-Roman period and played an essential role in connecting different regions. Photographed around 1923 by Anderson from Alinari, this print not only preserves but also immortalizes one of Rome's most treasured artifacts. Its historical value combined with its aesthetic appeal makes it truly mesmerizing for art enthusiasts and history buffs alike.
