EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the Roman theatre of Benevento, Italy. The ancient structure stands proudly, a testament to the rich history and architectural prowess of the Roman Empire. Dating back to the Antonine Period, around 180-192 AD, this remarkable artwork captures both the grandeur and elegance of Roman art and civilization. The theater's design showcases meticulous attention to detail, with its intricate architecture and structural elements. As we gaze upon this aerial view from above, we are treated to a breathtaking panorama of not only the theater but also the entire cityscape. From this vantage point, we can appreciate how strategically located it was within Benevento. The amphitheater arena served as a hub for performing arts and recreation during ancient times. It was here that spectators would gather to witness thrilling gladiatorial battles or be entertained by theatrical performances. This image evokes a sense of awe at imagining what once took place within these walls. Photographed in 1971 by Quilici Folco, this print is more than just an archaeological artifact; it is a window into our past. It allows us to connect with an era long gone yet still resonates through its enduring structures. Let this photograph serve as a reminder of our shared human heritage and inspire us to explore further into ancient civilizations like Rome – where artistry met engineering brilliance in creating lasting marvels such as this magnificent theater in Benevento.
