EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Raffaele Fabretti (1618-1700), Italian Antiquary. This evocative portrait captures the enquiring mind and scholarly dedication of Raffaele Fabretti (1618-1700), a prominent Italian antiquary of the late Renaissance period. Born in Perugia, Fabretti was a passionate collector and researcher of ancient coins, inscriptions, and artifacts, making significant contributions to the fields of numismatics and archaeology. The image, dated around 1650, depicts Fabretti in a thoughtful and introspective pose, holding a book and a magnifying glass, symbolizing his commitment to the meticulous study of historical records and artifacts. The richly textured background, adorned with ancient coins and other antiquities, further underscores his scholarly pursuits and the depth of his knowledge. Fabretti's most notable works include "Numismatica Illustrata" (1640), a groundbreaking treatise on ancient Roman coins, and "Antiquitates Urbis Perusiae" (1675), an extensive study of the history and antiquities of Perugia. His discoveries and insights helped advance the understanding of Roman history and culture, earning him recognition as a leading figure in the world of antiquarian scholarship. Despite the passage of centuries, this portrait of Raffaele Fabretti continues to inspire awe and admiration for the tireless pursuit of knowledge and the enduring allure of the past.
