EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic figure of Adrian, a Roman emperor who reigned from 117 to 138 AD. The creator of this intriguing portrait remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to the image. Emperor Hadrian was known for his relentless pursuit of Imperial ideals and personal interests, as depicted in this striking engraving. The detailed bust captures Adrian's bearded face with remarkable precision, showcasing the artistry and skill involved in creating such intricate sculptures during the 19th century. His gaze is directed away from the viewer, evoking a sense of introspection or perhaps hinting at his visionary nature. Displayed in Alfred Howard's "Biographical Illustrations" published by Thomas Tegg, R. Griffin and Co. , J. Cumming in London, Glasgow, and Dublin in 1830, this print offers a glimpse into ancient history through its portrayal of one man's power and influence within the Roman Empire. Adrian's regal presence is palpable as he stands tall against a backdrop that hints at Italy - his country of origin - further emphasizing his connection to royalty and imperial rule. This photograph serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation that transports us back to a time when emperors shaped nations with their ambitions. As we admire this timeless piece captured by an anonymous artist centuries ago, we are reminded not only of Adrian's legacy but also how art can transcend time itself.
