EDITORS COMMENTS
A captivating musical concert unfolds in this exquisite 18th-century copperplate engraving by Tommaso Piroli, titled "Antiquities of Herculaneum" (Antichità di Ercolano). The scene transports us back in time to ancient Rome, where a poetess or singer mesmerizes her audience with her enchanting voice and poetic words. She holds a small volume close to her chest, carefully reading the verses that inspire her performance. Accompanying her are two skilled musicians, each contributing to the harmonious melody with their respective instruments. The musician on the left plays the tibia, a double reed flute also known as a tibicine. He delicately presses the reeds against the mouthpiece, producing a rich, resonant sound that blends seamlessly with the poetess's voice. The musician on the right plays the lyre, a stringed instrument tied to his arm with a ribbon, known as a fidicine. He plucks the strings with his fingers, creating a melodic accompaniment that enhances the overall musicality of the performance. This musical concert, reminiscent of classical frescoes and paintings from Pompeii and mythology, is a testament to the enduring power of art and music to transport us to another time and place. The intricate details of the engraving, from the poetess's flowing robes to the ornate decorations on the musicians' instruments, invite us to explore the beauty and complexity of ancient Roman culture. Tommaso Piroli's "Antiquities of Herculaneum" is a precious fragment of history, offering a glimpse into the artistic and musical traditions of a bygone era. This engraving is a must-have for any collection of classical art or music, and a reminder of the timeless appeal of live performances and the power of the human voice and instruments to move and inspire us.
