EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Roman civilization - the statue of Pontifex Maximus from Via Labicana, Rome. Dating back to the 1st century A. D. , this ancient sculpture stands as a testament to the grandeur and artistry of that era. Against a striking black background, the statue's presence is amplified, drawing our attention to its intricate details. Draped in an elegant toga, the priestly figure exudes an aura of authority and wisdom. This studio shot captures every nuance of his classical style and male likeness. Although incomplete, with certain parts missing or damaged over time, it still emanates a sense of power and reverence. As we gaze upon this single object frozen in time, we are transported back to the imperial age of Julius Claudius. The Pontifex Maximus Augustus was not only a religious leader but also held great political influence during this period. The craftsmanship evident in this sculpture is truly awe-inspiring; each delicate curve and chiseled feature speaks volumes about the skill and dedication invested by its creator. With no people present in the frame, our focus remains solely on this mesmerizing work of art. This print serves as both a visual delight for enthusiasts of antiquities and an educational tool for those seeking insights into Roman history. It allows us to appreciate how even fragments from centuries ago can continue to captivate us today.
