EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Neptune. After a 16th century engraving" transports us back to ancient times when mythology and belief shaped the world. The artwork is an exquisite representation of Neptune, the Roman god of the sea and horses. In this illustration, we see Neptune depicted in all his majestic glory. Standing with a side view, his head and shoulders are beautifully engraved with intricate details that emphasize his divine nature. Three mature men stand beside him, watching as he blows into a conch shell - symbolizing his control over water and its vast depths. The fine art piece captures the essence of Roman history and religion, showcasing Neptune's significance as both a deity of the sea and horses. The artist skillfully portrays this powerful figure through carefully illustrated figures in mid-adult age. With its vertical composition and waist-up framing, this archival print brings forth an air of reverence for these ancient gods. It serves as a reminder of our connection to history while also highlighting the artistic mastery prevalent during the sixteenth century. Ken Welsh's rendition perfectly encapsulates Neptune's role as a significant religious figure in Roman culture. This historical artwork invites viewers to immerse themselves in tales from long ago – tales where gods ruled over land, sea, sky. . . and even horses
