EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Ancient Roman Naval Decorations: A Glimpse into the Maritime Triumphs of the Past This print showcases an intriguing collection of Ancient Roman naval decorations, providing a fascinating glimpse into the rich history of maritime warfare during the Roman era. The illustration, a meticulous copperplate engraving by Pietro Ruga after an original work by Lorenzo Rocceggiani, depicts various elements taken from maritime trophies, coins, and bas-reliefs. 2. The Rostrum and Its Ornate Decorations: At the heart of this image lies the Ancient Roman naval ram, or rostrum, with its distinctive swords and animal heads from a bas-relief discovered in Pantanello, Tivoli. The rostrum was a unique weapon used by the Romans to pierce the hulls of enemy ships during naval battles. The decorative elements on the rostrum, including swords and animal heads, symbolized the power and triumph of the Roman navy. 3. The Fiori and the Stern of the Trophy: Adorning the stern of the same trophy are the so-called "flowers" or "fiori." These intricately designed ornaments were believed to have been taken from the sterns of captured enemy ships and displayed as symbols of Roman naval victory. 4. The Rudder and Anchor: Adding to the collection are a rudder and an anchor, both of which were common elements of Ancient Roman naval vessels. The rudder, a steering device, allowed ships to maneuver effectively in the open sea, while the anchor ensured safe mooring during calm weather or in battle. 5. The Rostrum Crown: The final element in this print is the Rostrum crown, awarded to victors of naval battles. This symbol of triumph was a significant honor, signifying the bravery and skill of the Roman naval forces. This exquisite print offers a captivating glimpse into the world of Ancient Roman maritime warfare, showcasing the intricate details and ornate decorations that adorned the vessels and trophies of this legendary navy.
