EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Denarius coin from 32-31 BCE, depicting a magnificent Galley ship. Created by an unknown artist during the ancient Roman era, this piece of art is now displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago's Arts of the Ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium collection. The image beautifully captures the intricate details and craftsmanship of this ancient currency. The coin, made of silver, features a galley ship sailing on calm waters against a grey background. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the fine metalwork and delicate engravings that bring this nautical scene to life. With its letterbox format, every element is perfectly framed within the image. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are transported back in time to when Rome was at its height as an empire. This denarius served not only as currency but also as a symbol of power and wealth for those who possessed it. Through this photograph, we can admire both the artistic value and historical significance of such coins in preserving our past. It serves as a reminder that even small objects like these hold immense cultural heritage and contribute to our understanding of ancient civilizations. Whether you are fascinated by numismatics or simply intrigued by Roman history, this print offers a glimpse into an era long gone but forever immortalized through artistry and craftsmanship.
