EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable coin portraying Emperor Victorinus, who reigned from 268 to 270 AD. Crafted by an unknown creator during the ancient Roman era, this bronze currency piece is truly a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of its time. The reverse side of the coin features Aequitas, the goddess of justice and equality, holding scales. This symbolic representation adds depth and meaning to this numismatic treasure. Minted in Augusta Treverorum (modern-day Trier), Germany, this artifact offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of the region. The vibrant colors captured in this print bring life to every detail on the coin's surface. The profile portrait of Emperor Victorinus reveals his regal demeanor and royal crown, emphasizing his status as a ruler. It is fascinating how such a small object can hold so much historical significance. Displayed within an art gallery or museum setting like the Art Institute of Chicago's Arts of Ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium collection, this photograph invites viewers to explore not only ancient Rome but also delve into numismatics –the study of coins– as an important aspect of our shared human history. Through preserving artifacts like these coins, we are able to connect with our past while appreciating their artistic value. This print serves as both a visual delight for admirers of ancient art and an educational tool for those interested in understanding more about Emperor Victorinus' reign and Roman culture overall.
