This print showcases the remarkable "Portrait of Quintus Ennius" mosaic, a true testament to the rich history and artistic prowess of ancient Rome. Created by an anonymous Roman artist in the 3rd century AD, this masterpiece can be found at the Museo della Civilta Romana in Rome, Italy. Quintus Ennius, who lived from 239-169 BC, is depicted here with utmost detail and precision. Regarded as the Founder of Latin Poetry by his fellow Romans, Ennius holds immense significance in literary circles. The laurel wreath adorning his head symbolizes his poetic achievements and serves as a visual representation of his status as a celebrated writer. As we gaze upon this mosaic portrait, we are transported back in time to an era where comedy and tragedy were brought to life through words on stage. Ennius was not only known for his comedic works but also for his profound tragedies that left audiences captivated.
