EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the grandeur of ancient Rome. The engraving, created by an Italian artist in the 17th century, beautifully captures the iconic Circus Maximus. The Circus Maximus was a renowned racecourse that played a significant role in Roman culture and entertainment. This sprawling architectural marvel could accommodate up to 250,000 spectators who gathered to witness thrilling chariot races and other equestrian sports. In this image, we see a bustling scene filled with energy and excitement. Horses gallop across the track as skilled riders guide them towards victory. The power and grace of these magnificent animals are evident as they showcase their strength during this intense competition. As we admire this artwork, we can't help but be transported to a different era - one where horse racing was not only a sport but also an integral part of daily life in ancient Rome. We can almost hear the thundering hooves echoing through history as these horses charge forward on their quest for glory. This engraving serves as a reminder of how art has the ability to capture moments frozen in time, allowing us to appreciate and learn from our rich cultural heritage. It is truly fascinating how even centuries later, images like this continue to captivate audiences worldwide with their timeless beauty and historical significance.
