EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the grandeur of ancient Rome. The image showcases the remains of the Fountain of Alexander Severus, a once magnificent structure that now stands as a testament to the passage of time. Located in the bustling Piazza Vittorio Emanuele II, this historical site holds immense significance for both locals and tourists alike. The photograph captures the essence of nostalgia, transporting viewers to an era long gone. Its archival quality adds depth and character to every detail, allowing us to appreciate the intricate engravings and architectural elements that have withstood centuries. Once a symbol of opulence and power, this fountain was dedicated to Emperor Alexander Severus during his reign in Rome. Today, only its ruins remain, serving as a reminder of past glory while blending seamlessly into modern-day surroundings. As we gaze upon this vintage illustration from Cassells Illustrated Universal History (published 1883), we are reminded of how history shapes our present reality. This picture invites us on a journey through time, encouraging reflection on our own place within the ever-changing tapestry of human existence. Ken Welsh's skillful capture preserves not just an image but also an entire epoch - one filled with triumphs and tribulations that continue to shape our understanding of Italy's rich cultural heritage.
