EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an Ancient Roman marble head of a woman, skillfully engraved by Henry Corbould in the 19th century. The artwork is believed to depict either Tranquillina or Otacilia Severa, two prominent figures from ancient Rome. This exquisite piece was part of the renowned Townley Collection housed in the British Museum. The image captures the intricate details and craftsmanship of this historical artifact, highlighting its significance in archeology and art history. The smoothness of the marble block and delicate features of the woman's face demonstrate the mastery of Roman sculptors. The photograph also alludes to a sense of playfulness with its mention of marbles as a parlour game. It evokes images of elegant ladies engaging in leisurely activities during their time, emphasizing both femininity and social customs prevalent during that era. As we delve into this enchanting engraving, it transports us back to ancient Rome, allowing us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical context. Through this visual representation, we are reminded once again that art has always been intertwined with human civilization throughout centuries.
