EDITORS COMMENTS
In this handcolored copperplate engraving from Robert von Spalart's Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages, published in 1796, we find Roman Emperor Nero in a moment of reprieve from the turbulent political landscape of ancient Rome. Nero, known for his love of music and the arts, is depicted in the image playing the harp with an air of concentration and grace. The woman beside him, dressed in a Greek cloak and peplos, adds an element of mythological allure to the scene. Nero's reign as Emperor of Rome, from 54 to 68 AD, was marked by extravagance, controversy, and tragedy. Known for his love of music, poetry, and chariot racing, Nero sought to distance himself from the military image of his predecessors and instead presented himself as a patron of the arts. This image of Nero playing the harp is a testament to his passion for music and the arts, which was a source of both pleasure and controversy during his rule. The woman in the image is dressed in the traditional Greek cloak and peplos, a simple tunic with a draped overlay. This attire was popular in ancient Greece and was often depicted in art as a symbol of Greek culture and tradition. The inclusion of the Greek woman in the image may be a nod to Nero's alleged fascination with Greek mythology and culture. Overall, this enchanting image of Roman Emperor Nero playing the harp and a woman in Greek attire offers a glimpse into the complex and intriguing world of ancient Rome, where politics, art, and mythology intertwined in intriguing ways.
