EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases a collection of Ancient Roman lamps and candelabra, offering a glimpse into the rich history and exquisite craftsmanship of this ancient civilization. The print features four distinct pieces: a terracotta lamp with a rams head and serpent discovered near Porta San Lorenzo, another terracotta lamp adorned with a winged lion owned by Fiippo Luigi Gilii, an intricately designed metal candelabra housed in the Kircherian Museum, and finally, a lamp displayed at the Museo Napoli. The attention to detail in each piece is remarkable; from the delicate carvings on the terracotta lamps to the ornate patterns adorning the metal candelabra. These objects not only served as sources of light but also as decorative elements that added elegance and sophistication to ancient Roman interiors. Engraved by Pietro Ruga after an illustration by Lorenzo Rocceggiani for his book "100 Plates of Costumes Religious, Civil and Military of the Ancient Egyptians, Etruscans, Greeks and Romans" this print offers us an invaluable insight into ancient Roman culture. It reminds us of their advanced artistic skills and their ability to create functional yet aesthetically pleasing objects that have stood the test of time. Displayed against a dark background, these lamps and candelabra evoke an air of mystery while simultaneously showcasing their timeless beauty. This engraving serves as both a historical document preserving our past heritage as well as an inspiration for contemporary interior design enthusiasts seeking to incorporate elements from antiquity into modern spaces.
