EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Plate 10: The ancient Capitol ascended by approximately one hundred steps" takes us on a journey back to ancient Rome. The image showcases the grandeur of the ancient Capitol, an architectural masterpiece that stood tall in the eighteenth century. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art, our eyes are drawn to the magnificent portico with its intricate details and imposing statues. The building's facade exudes strength and power, reflecting the glory of Roman civilization. The composition is further enhanced by the presence of background figures, adding a sense of scale and perspective to the scene. These anonymous individuals give us a glimpse into daily life during that time period, reminding us that history is not just about monumental structures but also about ordinary people who lived their lives amidst such grandeur. Intriguingly, an obelisk stands proudly at the center of this architectural marvel. Its presence serves as a reminder of Rome's rich cultural heritage and its influence on future civilizations. This print is part of Giovanni Battista Piranesi's series "Part one of architecture and perspectives". Piranesi was renowned for his ability to capture intricate architectural details through his drawings and etchings. His dedication to Nicola Giobbe speaks volumes about his passion for preserving Italy's artistic legacy. Displayed in museums around the world today, this stunning artwork allows us to immerse ourselves in ancient Rome's splendor while appreciating Piranesi's exceptional talent as both an architect and artist.
