EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous scene from ancient Rome, showcasing the "Sacrifice of a bull, a ram, and a pig in honor of the God Mars". The intricate frieze is part of the Altar of Domitius Ahenobarbus, located within the Temple of Neptune in Rome. Dating back to the 1st century AD, this remarkable stone relief offers us an intriguing glimpse into Roman religious rituals. The detailed carving depicts a profile view of the sacrificial procession led by Cneius Domitius Ahenobarbus, who served as consul in 32 BC. The ritual known as suovetaurilia involved sacrificing these three animals - bull, ram, and pig - to appease and honor Mars (Ares), the Roman god associated with war. Every aspect has been meticulously recorded on this frieze: from the solemn expressions on participants' faces to their elaborate attire. This artwork not only showcases artistic skill but also provides valuable insights into ancient Roman culture and beliefs. Displayed at Louvre Museum in Paris, France; this exquisite piece serves as a testament to human devotion throughout history. It reminds us that sacrifice was an integral part of religious practices across civilizations and underscores our eternal quest for spiritual connection.
