EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning piece of Roman art, the Onyx cameo known as Gemma Claudia. Adorning representations of imperial couples from the 1st century AD, this intricate artwork is on display at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, Austria. The left side of the cameo features an exquisite portrayal of Claude (Tiberius Claudius Drusus), a prominent figure in Roman history who reigned from 10 BC to 54 AD. Standing beside him is his wife Agrippine the Younger (Agrippina minor), whose influence and power were notable during her lifetime from 15 to 59 AD. On the right side stands Caius Julius Caesar dit Germanicus, also known as Caligula, who lived from 15 BC to 19 AD. His wife Agrippine l Ainee (Agrippina maior) accompanies him in this elegant depiction. She was a significant figure in ancient Rome and lived between 14 BC and after JC. The artist behind this masterpiece, Luisa Ricciarini, has beautifully captured these imperial couples with incredible attention to detail. The regal profiles of each individual are highlighted by their crowns and expressions that exude authority and grace. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only the skillful craftsmanship but also provides a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of ancient Rome's elite society. It serves as a reminder of how art can transcend time and continue to captivate audiences even centuries later.
