EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a remarkable female statue, believed to be that of a poetess, displayed at the Vatican Museums in Vatican City. The statue stands as a testament to the rich Roman art and ancient civilization that once thrived in Europe. Dating back to approximately 1923, this print offers a glimpse into an era long gone by. The artwork itself dates from the 1st century BC to the 4th century AD, showcasing its enduring significance throughout history. The intricate details of this sculpture are brought to life through the lens of Anderson's camera. Adorned with a laurel wreath on her head, symbolizing poetic achievement and victory, she exudes elegance and wisdom. Her flowing costume reflects the fashion and clothing style prevalent during her time.
