EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Trajan's Column in Rome, a testament to the grandeur of ancient Roman art and military prowess. Erected by Emperor Trajan between 106-113 AD, this towering column stands as a symbol of his two victorious campaigns in Dacia. The column itself is adorned with intricate low relief carvings that depict the narrative of these military conquests. Atop this remarkable structure now rests a statue of St Peter, adding an intriguing layer of history and religious significance to this ancient monument. The juxtaposition of the Christian iconography with the war-themed sculpture below serves as a visual representation of how power dynamics shifted over time. The craftsmanship exhibited in both the carved reliefs and the statue is truly awe-inspiring. Each detail tells a story, capturing moments from intense battles, scenes from daily life during those times, and showcasing the might and discipline of Roman soldiers. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand Emperor Trajan's triumphs immortalized through art. It reminds us not only of Rome's glorious past but also highlights its enduring influence on Western civilization. This print serves as a window into history - an opportunity for us to appreciate and marvel at one of Rome's most iconic landmarks while contemplating its rich historical context.
