EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by Giarre from Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World" published in Florence in 1843, depicts a scene from ancient Etruscan civilization. The image is derived from an Etruscan urn, which dates back to around 9 BC. The urn's intricate design has been beautifully rendered in this engraving, showcasing the elegance and grandeur of Etruscan magistrates. At the center of the image, we see a president or magistrate seated on a curule seat, symbolizing his authority and power. He is dressed in the traditional toga, a long draped garment worn by Roman and Etruscan nobility. Four praetors or judges, dressed in short-sleeved tunics, are gathered around him, likely in the process of deliberating on a case. The urn itself is depicted as a magnificent work of art, with intricate carvings and elaborate decorations. It is surrounded by ruins, reminiscent of the ancient civilization that once thrived in this region. The urn's inscription, "Vestigia Di Sepolcro," translates to "Traces of a Tomb," hinting at the urn's original purpose as a funerary artifact. The scene is further enhanced by the inclusion of various historical references. In the background, we see the ruins of a mausoleum, possibly that of Drusus, a Roman general and statesman. Nearby, we see the stone ruins of a Chatti fortification, indicating the presence of Germanic tribes in the region. The names of notable Roman figures, such as Nero and Claudius, are also inscribed on the urn. This engraving is a fascinating glimpse into the rich history and culture of ancient civilizations, providing valuable insights into the fashion, art, and society of the time. It is a testament to the enduring allure of the past and the importance of preserving historical artifacts and records for future generations.
