EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Denarius coin from ancient Rome, dating back to around 49 BCE. The coin features an intricate depiction of the Goddess Salus, beautifully crafted by an unknown artist of that era. The image captures a close-up view of the coin against a subtle grey background, emphasizing its exquisite details and craftsmanship. The color palette adds depth and richness to this ancient artifact, highlighting its significance in Roman currency. Salus, the goddess depicted on the coin's obverse side, represents health and well-being in Roman mythology. Her serene expression and regal headpiece exude grace and power as she symbolizes the importance of healthcare during that time. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to both artistic skill and historical value. It offers us a glimpse into ancient Rome's culture, religion, and financial system. As we admire this studio shot photograph at the Art Institute Chicago's gallery dedicated to arts of the ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium, we are transported back in time to witness one aspect of life in this mighty empire. Through preserving such heritage art pieces like this denarius coin depicting Salus, we gain insight into our past while honoring those who came before us – their beliefs, traditions, and contributions shaping our world today.
