EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact known as the "Stela with a human figure". Dating back to the Roman Imperial Period, specifically between 27 BC and 476 AD, this stone stela was discovered in Lambese, Algeria. Lambaesa, originally established as a military foundation by the third Legion (Legio III Augusta), eventually became the capital of the newly founded province of Numidia. The stela itself is an exquisite example of ancient craftsmanship. Carved with intricate detail and adorned with decorative elements, it depicts a male figure wearing a toga and sporting an impressive beard. The stoic expression on his face suggests importance and authority. This votive sculpture likely held significant religious or cultural significance during its time. As we gaze upon this photograph captured by Gerard Degeorge, we are transported back in time to witness the artistry and devotion that went into creating such masterpieces. The presence of shepherds carved into the background adds depth and symbolism to this piece. With its rich history and artistic value, this Stela with a human figure serves as both a testament to ancient civilizations' creativity and their reverence for spirituality. It stands as an enduring reminder of our shared human heritage across continents and centuries.
