EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the 2nd century AD and gaze upon the regal visage of Hadrian, Roman Emperor from 117-138 AD. This striking print, taken from 'Ward and Lock's Illustrated History of the World', published circa 1882, presents a captivating portrait of this ancient leader. The artist's skillful brushstrokes bring to life the emperor's wise and introspective expression, his eyes seeming to hold a deep wisdom gathered from years of ruling one of history's most powerful empires.
Dressed in full imperial regalia, including a laurel crown symbolizing his triumphs and achievements, Hadrian exudes an air of authority and dignity. His profile is rendered in exquisite detail, with fine lines etched into his face that speak to the weight of responsibility he bore as ruler. As we look upon this print, we are transported to a bygone era when Rome was at its peak power and influence.
This beautiful illustration not only showcases Hadrian's physical appearance but also serves as a testament to the enduring legacy he left behind. As an emperor who built walls to protect his empire (most famously Hadrian's Wall in Britain) and fostered cultural exchange through architecture (such as rebuilding Jerusalem), Hadrian remains an important figure in world history.
