Plate 13 presents 'Four Putti Making and Drinking Wine', an exquisite depiction of cherubic figures indulging in the pleasures of life. The unknown creator skillfully captures their joyous expressions as they revel in the art of winemaking. Plate 10 unveils a picturesque scene with ruins of a temple nestled amidst a Roman landscape. A horse lies peacefully at the center, while two goats and a cow graze nearby, watched over by two seated shepherds. This harmonious composition evokes tranquility and serenity. Moving on to Plate 9, we encounter iconic landmarks such as the Arch of Constantine and part of the Colosseum. Horses gallop through this historic setting, creating an atmosphere filled with grandeur and majesty. Plate 8 transports us directly into the heart of ancient entertainment –the Colosseum itself. Two herds are directed towards this magnificent amphitheater in the foreground, hinting at thrilling spectacles that once took place within its walls. In Plate 6, cows gracefully traverse a valley while a horseman accompanies them from afar. The artist masterfully captures both movement and stillness in this pastoral scene. Plate 1 showcases fragments from ancient monuments scattered across Roman landscapes. These remnants serve as whispers from history itself, inviting us to imagine what stories these stones could tell if only they could speak. The peaceful ambiance continues in Plate 12 where we find a shepherd sleeping soundly on the ground surrounded by three horses grazing nearby. This idyllic tableau invites contemplation on nature's gentle embrace. Plate 4 offers an intriguing sight -a Corinthian capital resting upon the ground alongside a monument adorned with low relief figures. It sparks curiosity about their origins and purpose within ancient architecture.
