EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back to ancient Rome, where the practice of augury was a common method of divination. In this image, we see a Roman Augur deep in concentration as he interprets the prophecies revealed by the corn eaten by his hens.
The Augur's role was crucial in ancient Roman society, as his predictions were believed to guide important decisions and events. By closely observing the behavior of his feathered companions and analyzing the patterns in which they consumed their food, the Augur would offer insights into future outcomes.
The intricate details captured in this photograph allow us to glimpse into a world steeped in history and tradition. The ornate robes worn by the Augur, along with the carefully tended hens surrounding him, paint a vivid picture of life in ancient Rome.
As we study this image, we are reminded of the power that beliefs and rituals held over people's lives centuries ago. The connection between nature, animals, and human destiny is beautifully depicted here, serving as a poignant reminder of our enduring fascination with prophecy and fate.
Mary Evans Prints Online has preserved this remarkable piece of history for us to admire and reflect upon. It serves as a testament to our shared past and continues to inspire curiosity about ancient civilizations and their mystical practices.
