EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "POMPEII: RIOT, 59 A. D" takes us back in time to witness a dramatic scene at the amphitheater of Pompeii, Italy. The image captures a riot between the residents of Pompeii and Nuceria, which abruptly interrupts a gladiatorial contest. The Roman fresco from the house Actius Anicetus, dating back to around 59 A. D. , showcases the remarkable artistry and storytelling abilities of ancient civilizations. It serves as an archaeological treasure that sheds light on the turbulent history of this once-thriving city. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to an era long gone but preserved through excavation efforts. The exterior of the building stands as a testament to its former grandeur while bearing witness to centuries of wear and tear. The vividness and intricacy of this fresco allow us to imagine ourselves amidst the chaos unfolding within those walls. We can almost hear the clamor and feel our hearts race with anticipation as gladiators engage in combat. This image not only offers a glimpse into ancient warfare but also provides valuable insights into Roman society during that time period. It reminds us that even in antiquity, human emotions such as anger and unrest were ever-present. Let this photograph serve as a reminder that history is not just confined within textbooks; it lives on through these visual remnants left behind by our ancestors.
