EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the plaster mold of the Trajan Column at the Museo della Civilt Romana in Rome. The artwork itself was commissioned by Napoleon III in 1860 and holds immense historical value. The focal point of this image is Decebalus, king of the Dacians, genuflecting before Trajan, pleading for peace. This scene portrays an intense encounter between two powerful figures from ancient times. Their clothing and costumes reflect the fashion and style prevalent during that period. The photograph was taken in 1938 but showcases an artwork created almost eight decades earlier. It provides us with a glimpse into Europe's rich history during the first and second millennium A. D. , specifically highlighting the interactions between different civilizations. The plaster mold beautifully preserves intricate details of relief arts and handicrafts from the 19th century. This piece serves as a testament to both artistic skill and historical significance. Through this image, we are transported back to a time when empires reigned supreme, shaping entire regions through military might. The Roman Empire played a crucial role in European history, leaving behind remarkable legacies that continue to fascinate scholars and enthusiasts alike. Alinari Fratelli has masterfully captured this extraordinary moment on film, allowing us to appreciate not only their photographic expertise but also providing access to such historically significant artifacts for generations to come.
