EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and intricacy of the Procession, south wall of the Ara Pacis. Created by a Roman artist in the 1st century BC, this marble relief is now housed in the Museum of the Ara Pacis in Rome, Italy. The Ara Pacis Augustae, also known as Altar of Augustan Peace, was built to commemorate Emperor Augustus' military triumphs in Gaul and Hispania. The photograph showcases a remarkable display of religious and mythological figures marching together in an elaborate procession. Every detail is meticulously carved into the marble, revealing ancient architectural structures and beautifully adorned sculptures. Amongst these magnificent depictions are children dressed in togas, symbolizing innocence amidst a world dominated by power struggles. The significance of this artwork lies not only in its artistic brilliance but also its historical context. The altar was dedicated to Pax, the Roman goddess of peace - an essential virtue during a time marked by conquests and conflicts. As we gaze upon this image captured by A© Vincenzo Pirozzi from Fine Art Finder, we are transported back to ancient times when religion intertwined with politics and art served as both propaganda and cultural expression. This print serves as a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with mythology, architecture, and our collective quest for peace throughout history.
