EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the enchanting city of Rome in 1910. The image showcases the iconic Piazza Bocca della Verita, a square located by the Tiber River. Standing proudly at its center is the Round Temple of Mater Matuta, also known as the Temple of Vesta. The temple holds great historical and religious significance, dedicated to Mater Matuta, an ancient Latin goddess associated with dawn and fertility. Over time, she became equated with Aurora, the Roman dawn goddess, and Eos, her Greek counterpart. The photograph beautifully captures the circular structure of the temple adorned with majestic columns that reach towards the sky. Its sepia tones add a touch of nostalgia to this architectural marvel that has stood for centuries. As we gaze upon this monochrome scene frozen in time, we can almost feel ourselves transported to another era. The facade of this building exterior exudes grandeur and invites visitors from all corners of Italy and beyond. This remarkable print serves as a testament to Rome's rich cultural heritage and its enduring allure as a tourist attraction. It allows us to appreciate both the artistic vision behind Enrico Verdesi's lens and his dedication to preserving these classic views of Rome for generations to come.
