EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Denarius coin from ancient Rome, portraying the esteemed Emperor Septimius Severus. Created by an unknown artist in 200 AD, this piece of currency is a testament to the rich heritage and artistry of the Roman Empire. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate details on the coin's surface. The image features a headshot of Emperor Septimius Severus, his regal countenance captured with remarkable precision. Set against a grey background, the monochromatic color palette adds depth and enhances the overall aesthetic appeal. As we delve into history through this artwork, we are transported back to a time when coins were not only means of exchange but also symbols of power and authority. This Denarius serves as a tangible link between past and present, reminding us of Rome's significant influence on finance and economy. Displayed in an art gallery or institute such as The Art Institute Chicago, this photograph invites viewers to explore ancient Mediterranean civilizations and Byzantium through their artistic achievements. It offers glimpses into Italy's cultural legacy while shedding light on lesser-known aspects like coinage during that era. With its panoramic letterbox format capturing every detail meticulously, this studio shot emphasizes both the craftsmanship behind these historical artifacts and their enduring value for contemporary audiences. As we admire this portrait-like depiction of Emperor Septimius Severus on silver metal, we can't help but marvel at how it encapsulates centuries' worth of history within its small frame.
