EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the ancient wonders of Monte Cavallo, a monument that stood proudly in Rome from 1848 to 1852. Created by Eugene Constant, a renowned French artist, this image captures the essence of both ancient Egyptian and Roman civilizations. The photograph showcases the magnificent sculptures of Castor and Pollux, mythical twin brothers known for their bravery and loyalty. These statues stand tall against the backdrop of Piazza di Monte Cavallo, nestled on Quirinal Hill. The grandeur of these horse-mounted figures is enhanced by the presence of an obelisk rising majestically behind them. Constant's albumen print technique beautifully highlights every intricate detail of this archaeological site. The monochrome palette adds a timeless quality to the image, emphasizing its historical significance. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, we are transported to another era – a time when horses roamed freely amidst stunning architectural marvels. This print serves as a testament to Italy's rich heritage and cultural legacy. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, it invites visitors from around the world to immerse themselves in history while exploring one of Rome's most iconic tourist attractions. Through Eugene Constant's lens, we can appreciate not only his artistic prowess but also his ability to capture moments frozen in time for generations to come.
