EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the timeless beauty and rich history of the Flaminian Obelisk, or Obelisco Flaminio, standing proudly in Piazza del Popolo, Rome, Italy. Originally erected in the ancient Egyptian city of Heliopolis, the capital of the sun god Ra, this obelisk dates back to the 12th or 13th dynasty, making it over 3,000 years old. The obelisk, which measures 21.5 meters in height, was transported to Rome in 10 BC by the Roman Emperor Augustus as a symbol of his victory over Cleopatra and Mark Antony. It was later moved to its current location in Piazza del Popolo in 1589 by Pope Sixtus V. The photograph, taken in the 1930s, showcases the obelisk against a backdrop of a clear blue sky and the stunning dome of the Church of Santa Maria del Popolo. The sun casts a warm glow over the scene, highlighting the intricate carvings and inscriptions on the obelisk's surface. In the distance, the towering buildings of Rome and the Vatican City can be seen, adding to the sense of history and grandeur. The Flaminian Obelisk is a testament to the enduring power of ancient Egyptian culture and the influence it has had on Western civilization. Its presence in Piazza del Popolo serves as a reminder of the rich history and artistic heritage that Rome has to offer.
