EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Roman soldiers building a fort" takes us back in time to witness the remarkable construction skills of ancient Roman soldiers. Plate 21 from Le Costume Ancien et Moderne, created by Jules Ferrario and published in the early 19th century, showcases this extraordinary scene with vivid colors through a lithographic technique. The image captures the dedication and precision of these Roman soldiers as they work tirelessly to build a fort on the banks of the mighty River Danube. Taken from Trajan's Column, which was dedicated in 113 AD to commemorate their expedition against the Dacians, this snapshot provides an invaluable glimpse into history. Intriguingly, we see relief workers engaged in various tasks such as bricklaying and masonry. Their expertise is evident as they meticulously lay each stone upon another, creating a sturdy foundation for their fortress. The attention to detail is awe-inspiring; every element seems carefully planned and executed under Giulio Trajan's watchful eye. This artwork from The Stapleton Collection not only highlights the architectural prowess of ancient Rome but also pays homage to those who labored diligently behind its grandeur. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, human ingenuity and craftsmanship were capable of achieving incredible feats. As we admire this historical masterpiece captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, let us appreciate the timeless beauty it holds—a testament to both our shared past and our boundless potential for greatness.
