EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) takes us back in time to the grandeur of Roman civilization. The image showcases a remarkable stele, known as the Stele of Publius Londigiano, which pays homage to the skilled craftsmen who played a crucial role in building magnificent ships during ancient times. In this detailed carving, we witness the expertise of a faber navalis, or carpenter on a ship, diligently working on the construction of an impressive vessel. The bas relief captures every aspect of this intricate process - from measuring and shaping wood to assembling and refining each component with meticulous precision. The stone artwork beautifully portrays not only the craftsmanship involved but also offers insight into ancient Rome's dedication to maritime exploration and trade. It serves as a testament to their advanced engineering techniques and their ability to navigate vast oceans. The absence of people within this scene allows us to focus solely on the artistry displayed by these masterful artisans. The male likeness depicted here represents countless individuals whose skills contributed immensely to Rome's naval dominance. As we admire this horizontal composition, it is impossible not to marvel at both the artistic talent behind its creation and its historical significance. Latin script adorns parts of the stele, further immersing us in Roman culture while reminding us that even centuries later, remnants like these continue telling stories about our past.
