EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "View of the Ruined Baths at Hadrian's Villa at Tivoli" takes us on a journey back in time to the 18th century. Created by Italian artist Giovanni Battista Borra, this print measures 22.9x36.2 cm and is housed in the prestigious Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection. The image transports us to the ancient Roman ruins of Hadrian's Villa, located in Tivoli, Italy. The scene captures the essence of classical Roman architecture amidst an overgrown landscape, showcasing nature reclaiming its territory over man-made structures. The dilapidated state of these once-grand baths evokes a sense of melancholy and nostalgia. Built during the 2nd century AD under Emperor Hadrian's rule, these ruins hold historical significance as they offer glimpses into daily life during that era. Borra masterfully depicts every intricate detail with his engraving technique, allowing viewers to appreciate both the grandeur and decay present within this architectural marvel. As we gaze upon this lithograph, we are reminded of our connection to history and how even great civilizations eventually succumb to time's relentless passage. This artwork serves as a poignant reminder that beauty can be found not only in pristine perfection but also in imperfection and decay. Through Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, this remarkable piece remains accessible for all to admire without any commercial use restrictions. It stands as a testament to human ingenuity while simultaneously celebrating nature's
