EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Denarius coin from ancient Rome, portraying the esteemed Emperor Trajan. Created by an unknown artist between 103-111 AD, this second-century artifact is a testament to the rich history and artistry of the Roman Empire. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate details of this silver coinage, which was once used as currency in that era. The image features Emperor Trajan's noble profile on one side, his regal visage captured with remarkable precision. With a grey background adding depth and contrast, the portrait stands out prominently against it. The letterbox format enhances its panoramic appeal, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in this ancient world. Trajan's reign marked a prosperous period for Rome, known for his military conquests and extensive public works projects throughout the empire. As we gaze upon this relic of antiquity, we are reminded of Trajan's significant contributions to Roman society and governance. Displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago's Arts of Ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium collection, this photograph preserves not only historical heritage but also serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with art across time and cultures. Through capturing such an extraordinary object like this denarius coin in stunning detail, we can continue appreciating its beauty long after it ceased circulating as legal tender centuries ago.
