EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to ancient Rome, specifically the 2nd century during the Dacian Wars. The image showcases a remarkable engraving from Trajan's Column, skillfully captured by Marco Dente da Ravenna in the 16th century. The focal point of this artwork is a group of Roman horsemen, elegantly depicted with intricate details that highlight their strength and valor. These cavalry soldiers were an integral part of the Roman armed forces, embodying the might and power of Emperor Trajan's reign. As we admire this piece, we are transported to a different era where warfare was prevalent and strategic military campaigns shaped history. The relief sculpture on Trajan's Column serves as a monument to commemorate these significant events. Marco Dente's artistic talent shines through his precise rendering of every figure, showcasing his mastery over engraving techniques. This print is not only a testament to Dente's skill but also represents Italy's rich heritage in art and culture. Displayed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this exquisite piece invites viewers to appreciate both its historical significance and artistic beauty. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, ancient Rome continues to captivate our imagination with its grandeur and influence on Western civilization.
