EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Roman art: the representation of Antinous, a young man who was Emperor Hadrian's beloved companion. Created around 110-130 AD, this bronze sculpture is currently housed in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Florence, Italy. The craftsmanship and attention to detail evident in this artwork are truly awe-inspiring. The artist skillfully captures Antinous' youthful features and delicate expression, immortalizing his beauty for generations to come. The smoothness of the metal and the intricate carving bring forth an air of elegance that reflects the artistic prowess of ancient Rome. Antinous holds great historical significance as not only a lover but also a trusted confidant to Emperor Hadrian. Their relationship symbolizes love and devotion beyond societal norms, shedding light on homosexuality during that era. Luisa Ricciarini has expertly captured this masterpiece through her lens, preserving its essence for all art enthusiasts to admire. This photograph allows us to appreciate the fine details up close while providing insight into the rich cultural heritage of ancient Rome. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness both the splendor of Roman artistry and the profound connection between two individuals transcending social boundaries.
