EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Philippo Decio, the Distinguished Italian Jurist of the 16th Century" This evocative portrait captures the intellectual intensity and profound wisdom of Philippo Decio (1535-1598), an esteemed Italian jurist of the late Renaissance period. Decio, also known as Larmessin, is depicted here in the prime of his life, his lined forehead and furrowed brow reflecting the deep thought and contemplation that characterized his legal career. Born in Bologna, Decio was a leading figure in the development of the civil law tradition in Europe. He studied law at the University of Bologna, the oldest and most prestigious law school in Europe, and went on to teach there for many years. Decio's scholarship focused on the works of the great Roman jurists, particularly Justinian and his codification of Roman law. Decio's contributions to the field of jurisprudence were significant. He wrote numerous commentaries on the works of the Roman jurists, as well as several important treatises on various aspects of civil law. Decio's work was influential not only in Italy but throughout Europe, and his commentaries were used as textbooks in universities across the continent. In this portrait, Decio is shown wearing the traditional attire of a jurist of the time, including a black robe and a hat known as a "pileus." The hat, which was worn to signify the holder's legal expertise, adds to the sense of authority and dignity conveyed by the image. Decio's legacy as a jurist and scholar endures to this day. His works continue to be studied and referenced by legal scholars around the world, and his contributions to the development of civil law have had a profound impact on the legal systems of many countries. This portrait serves as a reminder of Decio's important place in the history of jurisprudence and the enduring influence of the Italian legal tradition.
