EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable high relief sculpture that depicts the great Marcus Aurelius alongside the subjugated Germans. Preserved in the esteemed Capitoline Museums of Rome, this artwork hails from the Antonine Period during the Imperial era of Roman art. Dating back to approximately 161-180 AD, this masterpiece offers a glimpse into ancient European civilization and its rich history. The photograph itself was taken around 1890, capturing every intricate detail of this awe-inspiring piece. In this scene, we witness Marcus Aurelius mounted on his majestic horse, surrounded by terrestrial mammals and verdant vegetation. Adorned in elaborate body armor and an impressive military helmet, he exudes power and authority as a distinguished soldier and political figure. The presence of a prisoner adds depth to the narrative portrayed in this high relief. It symbolizes not only conquest but also social status within Roman society at that time. As emperor of one of history's most influential empires, Marcus Aurelius proudly displays insignia denoting his military rank. Anderson's expert photography brings out every nuance in this artwork - from the fine craftsmanship to the delicate expressions etched on each character's face. This image serves as a testament to both Anderson's skill behind the lens and Alinari's commitment to preserving historical treasures for generations to come.
