EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the ancient Temple of Venus and Roma, a remarkable architectural masterpiece located in the heart of the Roman Forum in Rome, Italy. Dating back to the 2nd century AD, this temple was begun in 121 by the revered Emperor Hadrian and completed under the rule of Antoninus Pius in 141 AD. The temple, dedicated to the goddess Venus, the Roman goddess of love and beauty, and her consort, the sun god, was a symbol of the eternal power and grandeur of the Roman Empire. The temple's impressive design features a rectangular plan, surrounded by a portico with 36 Ionic columns, and a towering central tower, known as the Velian Tower. The temple's intricate decorations, including friezes depicting scenes from Greek mythology, further emphasize its artistic and cultural significance. This panoramic view of the Temple of Venus and Roma offers a glimpse into the rich history and architectural wonders of ancient Rome. The temple stands proudly on the Capitoline Hill, overlooking the Roman Forum, and serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of the Roman civilization. The ruins of this magnificent structure continue to captivate visitors from around the world, inspiring awe and wonder at the ingenuity and artistic prowess of the ancient Romans.
