EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration from the 18th century, January is personified as a Roman Consul lighting an altar to Janus. The detailed artwork, created by Dom Bernard de Montfaucon, showcases the intricate rituals and customs of ancient Rome.
Montfaucon, a French Benedictine monk and pioneer in the field of palaeography and archaeology, brings to life the rich history and culture of the Roman Empire. Through his meticulous attention to detail, he captures the essence of religious practices during this time period.
The image depicts January as a figure of authority and reverence, embodying the importance of new beginnings and transitions that come with the start of a new year. As he lights the altar to Janus, the two-faced god symbolizing beginnings and endings, we are reminded of the cyclical nature of time.
This print serves as a window into ancient Roman civilization, offering viewers a glimpse into their beliefs and traditions. It is not just a representation of historical events but also an exploration of human connection to spirituality throughout different eras.
As we reflect on this stunning piece of art, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how our ancestors honored their gods and celebrated important milestones. The legacy left behind by Montfaucon continues to inspire us to delve deeper into our past and appreciate the cultural heritage that shapes our present-day society.
