EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration of Arcadius, the Emperor of the Roman Empire, from a renowned collection. Created in 1559 by Rudolph Wyssenbach and printed by Andreas Gesner in Zurich, this woodcut captures the essence of ancient Rome with remarkable precision. Arcadius, also known as Flavius Arcadius Augustus, reigned over the empire from 395 until his untimely death in 408. His profile is depicted here with great attention to detail and authenticity. The intricate inscription on the coin adds an extra layer of historical significance to this artwork. Hans Rudolf Manuel Deutsch masterfully reproduced this image based on ancient numismatics for inclusion in "Imperatorum romanorum omnium orientalium et occidentalium verissimae imagines ex antiquis numismatis". This title further enriches our understanding of Arcadius' life through descriptions sourced from Jacob Strada's treasury. The Stapleton Collection proudly houses this extraordinary piece that offers a glimpse into one of history's most influential figures. As we admire this portrait, we are transported back to a time when emperors ruled mighty civilizations and coins served as symbols of power and authority. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also invites us to explore the rich tapestry woven by ancient Rome. It reminds us that even centuries later, their legacy continues to captivate our imagination and shape our understanding of human history.
