EDITORS COMMENTS
Terence, born in Carthage around 195 BC, was a renowned Roman playwright of the late Republican era. This engraving, created in the 16th century, is an exquisite representation of Terence in his later years. The portrait, which is part of an edition of his works published in Barcelona in 1518, showcases Terence in a thoughtful and contemplative pose, with a serious expression on his face. The engraving is colored, adding depth and vibrancy to the image, and is framed by an ornate column. Terence's plays, which were primarily comedies, were influential in the Roman theater scene and continue to be studied and performed today. He is believed to have been a freed slave, and his success as a playwright is a testament to his talent and determination. The image of Terence in this engraving is often depicted with a quill and scroll, symbolizing his status as a writer. The edition of Terence's works from which this portrait comes was published by the Catalan printer Calphur, who was known for his high-quality productions. The book was likely owned by a clergyman or scholar, as evidenced by the presence of a friar and a group of scholars in the background of the image. The engraving, which is housed in the collection of the Barcelona Museum of History, is a valuable reminder of Terence's enduring legacy as a master of Roman comedy and a trailblazer for the arts.
