EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph captures the intricate details of a mosaic depicting a bear wounded with a spear from the Casa dell'Orso, House of the Bear in Pompeii. The artwork, created by Victor Steeger after an illustration by Geremia Discanno, is featured in Emile Presuhn's collection of The Most Beautiful Paintings of Pompeii.
The image showcases the skill and artistry of ancient Roman craftsmen who created this mosaic as a form of decoration in their home. The bear, depicted with realism and emotion, appears to be in pain from the spear lodged in its side. This scene not only serves as a work of art but also provides insight into the daily life and interests of Pompeian residents.
As we admire this piece today, we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen in history. The vibrant colors and intricate patterns draw us into the world of ancient Rome, where art was not just for aesthetic pleasure but also served as a reflection of society and culture.
Through this print, we can appreciate the craftsmanship and creativity that went into creating such elaborate mosaics that adorned the walls and floors of Roman homes. It is a testament to human ingenuity and artistic expression that continues to captivate viewers centuries later.
