EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "View of the Temple of the Sun and Moon from the Coliseum in Rome," dates back to 1817 and was created by the renowned French artist, Claude Thiénon. Thiénon, a skilled draftsman, captured the breathtaking scene of the ancient Colosseum in Rome, with its iconic amphitheater facade, and in the distance, the temples of the Sun and Moon. The Colosseum, a symbol of the grandeur and power of the Roman Empire, stands majestically in the foreground, its tattered remains a testament to the passage of time. The temples of the Sun and Moon, located in the ancient Roman Forum, can be seen in the background, their classical columns and intricate details depicted with meticulous precision by Thiénon. This print is a valuable addition to any art collection, offering a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of ancient Rome. Thiénon's masterful use of contrast and shading in this monochromatic work adds depth and texture to the image, making it a stunning piece of art that is sure to captivate the viewer. The print was created during the 19th century, a time when there was renewed interest in the classical world and its art. Thiénon's work reflects this trend, as he was inspired by the ancient Roman ruins and sought to capture their essence through his drawings. This print was once part of the collection of Charles Philibert Comte de Lasteyrie du Saillant, a French nobleman and art collector. It has since been exhibited in various art galleries and museums, including the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and educate visitors about the rich history of the ancient world.
