EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the Hadrian era, showcasing a remarkable statue that pays homage to the late Greek original of Venus-Aphrodite anadyomne from Cirene. The photograph captures the statue from behind, offering a unique perspective on its exquisite craftsmanship. Once housed at the prestigious National Roman Museum within the Terme of Diocletian in Rome, this stunning work of art has since found a new home in Libya. In 2008, it was relocated to the Archaeological Museum of Tripoli, although its current placement remains uncertain. The image itself is a testament to both ancient beauty and modern preservation. The delicate details carved into every inch of this sculpture are brought to life through Alinari's expert photography. From the intricate folds of fabric cascading down Venus-Aphrodite's body to her elegant pose that exudes grace and sensuality, every element is captured with precision. Dating back approximately to 1923, this timeless snapshot allows us to appreciate not only the artistic mastery behind this piece but also serves as a reminder of our connection with history. It invites contemplation about how such works have endured throughout centuries and continue to captivate audiences today.
