EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the timeless beauty of the Pallas of Velletri, a magnificent marble statue from Greek art housed in the prestigious Capitoline Museums in Rome. The image transports us back to ancient times, showcasing an exquisite piece of artwork that dates back to the 4th century BC. The Pallas of Velletri stands tall and proud, adorned in a stunning costume that reflects the fashion and clothing style of that era. Her military helmet serves as both a protective accessory and symbolizes her divine status as a female deity. This enigmatic figure is believed to represent Athena or Minerva, two powerful goddesses from Greek mythology known for their wisdom and strength. In her hand, she holds a lance, an object synonymous with warfare during ancient civilizations. This striking pose showcases not only her prowess but also pays homage to Greece's rich history and culture. As we gaze upon this remarkable print captured by Alinari Fratelli between 1890-1920, we are reminded of Europe's ancient civilization - its grandeur and influence on art throughout time.
