EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Roman art, depicting the intense battles between Roman warriors and barbarians during the Marcoman Wars. The relief is part of the sarcophagus of Portonaccio, which belonged to a general of Marc Aurele and dates back to 180-190 AD. Housed in the Museo Nazionale Romano in Rome, Italy, this artwork offers a glimpse into the ancient world's military conflicts. The scene portrayed on the relief is both awe-inspiring and dramatic. It captures the chaos and brutality of battle as Roman soldiers clash with their barbarian adversaries. The intricate carving skillfully brings out every detail - from weapons clashing to expressions etched on faces filled with determination or fear. As we observe this historical masterpiece, we are transported back in time to an era when warfare was a way of life for these ancient civilizations. This artwork not only serves as a testament to human resilience but also highlights the significance that war held within Roman society. Through archaeology and history, we gain insight into how these battles shaped the course of history and influenced future generations. This photograph by Luisa Ricciarini beautifully captures this essence while preserving an important artifact from antiquity for all to appreciate.
