EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Alfred Rimmer transports us back in time to Roman Chester, where ancient altars and tiles bear the marks of soldiers who once walked these streets. The intricate details of the stamp of a Roman soldier's foot on the tile tell a story of conquest and occupation, reminding us of the rich history that lies beneath our feet.
The River Dee flows quietly in the background, a witness to centuries of human activity along its banks. This scene from 19th century England captures a moment frozen in time, offering us a glimpse into the past through the eyes of an artist who sought to preserve these historical artifacts for future generations.
As we study this image, we are transported back to a time when Chester was known as Deva Victrix, a bustling Roman fortress city filled with soldiers and civilians going about their daily lives. The engravings bring to life the craftsmanship and artistry of those who came before us, leaving behind tangible evidence of their presence in this ancient city.
Through this print, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left by those who have gone before us, shaping our understanding of history and connecting us to our shared past. It serves as a testament to the power of art and archaeology in preserving our cultural heritage for generations to come.
