This print showcases a remarkable Roman relief from the 2nd century, depicting a river barge transporting barrels. The artwork is housed at the Musee Lapidaire in Avignon, France. This ancient sculpture beautifully captures the essence of transportation and trade during Roman times.

The attention to detail in this relief carving is truly awe-inspiring, with each figure exuding strength and determination. The artist skillfully portrays the effort involved in water transport during that era. The meticulously carved barrels on board symbolize commerce and signify the importance of goods being transported across vast distances. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, it transports us back to ancient Rome, allowing us to appreciate their advanced understanding of engineering and logistics. It serves as a testament to their ingenuity and resourcefulness when it came to navigating rivers for both practical purposes and leisurely travel.
