EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Fetial priest or fetialis, ancient Rome" takes us on a journey back to the grandeur of ancient Rome. The image showcases a distinguished Fetial priest adorned in a laurel wreath, toga, and cloak, exuding an air of authority and spirituality. In his hand rests a spear, symbolizing both protection and power. The background reveals the architectural wonders of Rome - a majestic statue perched atop a column and an aqueduct stretching across the horizon. These structures serve as reminders of the city's rich history and cultural heritage. Created by L. F. Labrousse under the guidance of Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur for their publication "L'antique Rome" this handcoloured copperplate engraving brings to life the religious customs and social hierarchy prevalent during ancient times. The intricate details captured in this print allow us to glimpse into Roman society - its clothing styles, social classes, and religious practices. It offers insight into how religion played an integral role in shaping daily life during that era. As we gaze upon this artwork from centuries past, we are reminded not only of our shared human history but also of the enduring fascination with antiquity. This piece serves as a testament to the craftsmanship of Labrousse while providing us with an opportunity to reflect on our own beliefs and traditions today.
