EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a historical moment from ancient Rome - the marriage of Emperor Nero and his wife Poppaea Sabina. The image is a reproduction from Anton Sorg's edition of Giovanni Boccaccio's "De Mulieribus Claris" (On Famous Women), published in Ulm, Germany in 1479. In this wood engraving, we see the couple standing side by side, dressed in elaborate medieval costumes befitting their royal status. Nero wears a regal headdress and a crown, symbolizing his power as the ruler of Rome. Poppaea appears elegant in her intricate dress and headgear, exuding grace and beauty. The artist has skillfully captured the essence of this historic moment through detailed engravings that bring out every nuance of their attire. The monochrome effect adds to the timeless quality of the image, transporting us back to an era long gone. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of Nero's reign but also of Poppaea's influence as his wife. Their union was significant within Roman society at that time, representing both political alliances and personal connections. This remarkable piece serves as a window into history - a glimpse into the lives of two individuals who played pivotal roles during one of Rome's most intriguing periods. It stands as a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship involved in wood engraving while offering us an opportunity to reflect on centuries past.
