EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Roman-Pompeian wall painting known as "The Judgment of Solomon" dating back to the 1st millennium. Housed in the esteemed Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli in Italy, this piece of art is a testament to ancient wisdom and law. Depicting a pivotal moment from the Old Testament, this fresco captures King Solomon's legendary judgment. Two mothers stand before him, each claiming a baby as her own. With profound insight and motherly love, Solomon proposes an unconventional solution: he orders that the infant be divided into two halves so that both women can have their share. This powerful image encapsulates themes of justice, motherhood, and maternal instinct. The intricate details on display transport viewers back to ancient Rome and Pompeii, offering a glimpse into their artistic prowess. "The Judgment of Solomon" serves as a reminder of our shared human experiences across time and cultures. It symbolizes not only the wisdom of King Solomon but also the eternal struggle for truth and fairness within society. As we admire this fine art masterpiece captured through photography, let us reflect upon its significance in history while appreciating its beauty preserved by Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli in Casa del Medico.
