EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is a title plate from Hendrik Goltzius' series, "The Roman Heroes," created in 1586. The Dutch artist, Hendrik Goltzius (1558-1617), was a renowned engraver and printmaker, known for his mastery of the technique and his intricate, detailed compositions. This print showcases the goddess Roma, the personification of Rome, standing proudly on a pedestal. She is depicted with an elaborate crest above her head, adorned with the letters R and M, symbolizing the Roman Republic. The goddess is dressed in flowing robes and holds a cornucopia, a symbol of abundance and prosperity, in one hand, and a scepter in the other. The background is filled with intricate heraldic designs and lettering, adding to the overall grandeur of the composition. This engraving, with its striking contrast and meticulous detail, is a testament to Goltzius' artistic skill and the artistic heritage of the Low Countries during the 16th century. The print is now part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), a treasure trove of art and cultural heritage from around the world.
