EDITORS COMMENTS

Step back in time with these stunning albumen prints from Rome, Italy, captured by the talented photographer Robert MacPherson in 1857. Each image transports you to a different corner of this ancient city, showcasing its rich history and architectural wonders. The Pantheon, a true masterpiece of Roman engineering, stands tall and majestic in one photograph. Its grand dome and intricate details are beautifully preserved through MacPherson's lens. Moving on to the Roman Forum, we encounter the Antonio and Faustina temple ruins. The weathered stones tell stories of an era long gone, while MacPherson's artistry brings them back to life. In another print titled "Basilica of Maxentius, " we witness the remnants of a once-great structure that dominated the skyline. The play between light and shadow highlights its grandeur even in decay. A round fortress building lies in ruins but still exudes an air of strength and resilience. It serves as a reminder that even empires crumble over time. Trajan's Column takes center stage in two separate images - one capturing its base with intricate carvings depicting historical events, while another showcases the column itself towering above us like a silent guardian. The Temple of Minerva emanates tranquility amidst surrounding chaos. Its elegant columns stand proud against nature's relentless attempts to reclaim what was once hers. Venturing further into the Forum area reveals more captivating scenes: Triumphal Arch ruins from the Temple of Venus and Rome transport us back to glorious triumphs celebrated centuries ago; a round building adorned with clocks reminds us that time waits for no one; while a bridge spanning over Tiber River connects past and present generations alike. Two magnificent arches also make their appearance –the Arch of Silversmiths stands as testament to skilled craftsmanship passed down through generations; meanwhile, the Arch of Septimius Severus tells tales of military conquests etched into stone forever.
