EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing Roman frescoes at Ecolano (Herculaneum), a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in Campania, Italy. The image captures the essence of ancient Italian art and archaeology, with its vibrant colors and intricate decorative details. A close-up view reveals a beautifully illustrated drawing that depicts a face adorned with elaborate decorations. The artwork on display here is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of this region. Herculaneum, once an affluent Roman town, was tragically buried under volcanic ash during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. However, these preserved frescoes offer us a glimpse into the past and provide valuable insights into Roman civilization. The mural's deteriorated state adds to its allure, as it highlights both the passage of time and the resilience of human creativity. This photograph transports viewers back in time to witness firsthand an era long gone but not forgotten. As part of Southern Europe's Mediterranean charm, this UNESCO World Heritage Site attracts travelers from all over the world who seek to immerse themselves in history and culture. The horizontal composition and vivid color palette make this image visually striking, inviting viewers to explore every brushstroke within this remarkable piece of art. Oliviero Olivieri/Robert Harding has skillfully captured this momentous archaeological site through his lens, preserving its beauty for generations to come.
