EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving depicts the representation of Valentine's Day of Rome (or Terni) from the 3rd century, during his imprisonment under Emperor Claude II the Gothic. The intricate details in this print bring to life the story of Valentine or Valentinus of Rome, a Christian martyr who defied the emperor's orders by performing marriages for soldiers.
Despite facing persecution for his beliefs, Valentine remained steadfast in his faith and commitment to love. This image captures the essence of his courage and devotion, as he stands resolute in the face of adversity.
The artist has skillfully portrayed the solemnity and gravity of Valentine's situation through their use of shading and composition. The black-and-white tones add a sense of timelessness to this historical scene, emphasizing the enduring legacy of Valentine's sacrifice.
As we gaze upon this engraving, we are reminded not only of Valentine's unwavering dedication to his principles but also of the universal power of love that transcends all boundaries. This artwork serves as a poignant reminder that even in times of darkness and oppression, love has the strength to triumph over hate.
