EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of ancient Roman imperial footwear, featuring shoes and sandals discovered in various archaeological sites. The first pair depicted is from the Trajan Column in Rome, dating back to the Imperial Roman period. The intricately designed shoes, with their high heels and decorative lacing, were likely worn by high-ranking officials or military personnel. Next, we have a pair of sandals from Palazzo Mattei in Italy, which date back to the same era. These sandals, with their simple yet elegant design, were commonly worn by the Roman populace for everyday use. The third pair is a sandal fragment discovered at Palestrina, exhibiting the typical Roman sandal construction with a thong between the toes and a strap securing the heel. Lastly, we see a Roman sandal from a figure in the Casa Giustiniani, which showcases the versatility of Roman footwear. This sandal, with its thick sole and high ankle support, was likely used for both work and leisure activities. The print is a beautiful copperplate engraving by Pietro Ruga, based on an illustration by Lorenzo Rocceggiani from his comprehensive work, "100 Plates of Costumes Religious, Civil and Military of the Ancient Egyptians, Etruscans, Greeks and Romans," published in Rome in 1802. This print offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich history and diversity of ancient Roman footwear.
