EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 17th-century copperplate engraving by Jan Luyken, titled "Afschetsing van Rome door Romulus" or "The Founding of Rome by Romulus," we witness a poignant moment in Roman history. The scene is set against the backdrop of ancient Rome, with a Roman priest deeply engrossed in offering a sacrifice to the gods. The priest's solemn expression and the smoke rising from the altar create an ethereal atmosphere, emphasizing the spiritual significance of the ritual. In the foreground, a ploughman and his oxen are hard at work, plowing a field, symbolizing the connection between the divine and the earthly realm. The image also depicts Roman soldiers, including centurions, performing various tasks such as building structures, making camp, and executing military maneuvers. The Roman emperor Maximinus Thrax and his successor, Gaius Julius Verus Augustus, are shown in classical portraits at the bottom left and right corners of the engraving, respectively. Their regal presence underscores the importance of the Roman monarchy and its connection to the gods. This enchanting image, taken from Abraham Bogaert's "De Roomsche Monarchy," offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of ancient Rome. The intricate details and meticulous craftsmanship of the copperplate engraving transport us back in time, allowing us to experience the grandeur and majesty of the Roman Empire.
