EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable ancient artifact, a Sestertius coin portraying Emperor Hadrian of the Roman Empire. Created by an unknown artist during the 2nd century AD, this bronze coin is a testament to the rich history and artistry of Ancient Rome. The close-up image allows us to appreciate the intricate details on this currency piece. The profile of Emperor Hadrian's head dominates the composition, his regal features captured with great skill and precision. The grey background enhances the coin's color and adds depth to its overall presentation. As we gaze upon this relic from centuries past, we are transported back in time to an era when coins were not only symbols of wealth but also powerful tools for propaganda and political messaging. This particular sestertius bears witness to Emperor Hadrian's reign from 117-138 AD, showcasing his authority as part of the Nerva-Antonine dynasty. Displayed in an art gallery or museum setting such as the Art Institute Chicago, this photograph invites viewers to explore both artistic mastery and historical significance. It serves as a reminder that even everyday objects like coins can hold immense value in terms of cultural heritage and human creativity. Through this studio shot captured by an anonymous photographer, we are granted a glimpse into ancient Rome's monetary system while marveling at its craftsmanship—a true treasure preserved for generations to come.
