EDITORS COMMENTS
August: Augustus, the Roman Emperor, pays his workmen in this image from the "Ages of Man" series by an unknown artist, dating back to 1523. This historical print, available through Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back to ancient Rome, where the passage of time is personified through the depiction of the seven ages of man. August, the fifth age, represents the stage of life where a man has attained maturity and wealth. He is shown here in regal attire, seated on a throne, surrounded by his workmen. The artist masterfully captures the moment of exchange between the emperor and his laborers, with Augustus extending his hand in a gesture of generosity, while the workmen, dressed in simple clothing, bow in gratitude. The intricate details of the print, from the textured fabrics to the expressive faces of the figures, bring the scene to life. The use of chiaroscuro, the contrast between light and dark, adds depth and dimension to the image, while the muted colors evoke a sense of timelessness. This print is not only a testament to the artistic skill of the unknown artist but also a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily life of ancient Rome. It invites us to reflect on the stages of life and the importance of community, labor, and the exchange of value. The "Ages of Man" series, with its rich symbolism and intricate details, continues to captivate audiences and inspire artists and scholars alike. This particular print, August: Augustus pays his workmen, is a must-have for anyone with an interest in history, art, or the human condition.
