EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Rome under Trajan - A chariot race" takes us back in time to witness the thrilling spectacle of ancient Rome. The gravure, created by Ulpiano Checa y Sanz in the late 19th century, beautifully captures the intensity and grandeur of a chariot race during Emperor Trajan's reign. The image showcases a heart-pounding moment as powerful horses gallop at breakneck speed, pulling ornate chariots driven by skilled competitors. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, from the intricate engravings on the chariots to the tension visible on each racer's face. It is truly a testament to Checa y Sanz's talent and his ability to bring history alive through art. This particular print was featured in Charles Horne's renowned publication "Great Men and Famous Women" published around 1900. Thanks to digital restoration techniques, this image has been meticulously cleaned and preserved for generations to come. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back thousands of years into an era where such races were not only entertainment but also symbols of power and prestige. This artwork serves as a window into ancient Roman culture, allowing us to marvel at their engineering prowess and appreciate their love for exhilarating spectacles like these chariot races.
