EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Rome surrounded by Europe, Africa, and Asia" transports us back to the grandeur of ancient Rome. The personification of the city of Rome takes center stage, perched on an elevated platform with a small statue of Victoria held delicately in her hands. As we explore the scene further, our eyes are drawn to the allegorical representations of Europe (accompanied by a majestic bull), Africa (with a formidable crocodile), and Asia (guarded by a fierce lion). Each figure symbolizes the cultural and geographical influence these continents had on the mighty Roman Empire. In the foreground lies a river god, embodying one of Rome's lifelines - its rivers that provided sustenance and trade routes. Nearby, we witness Romulus and Remus being washed ashore and nurtured by their legendary foster mother, Lupa Romana. This iconic tale speaks to Rome's mythical origins as well as its nurturing spirit. The intricate details captured in this etching by Jan Luyken in Amsterdam during 1690 transport us back in time while showcasing his artistic skill. This remarkable piece not only celebrates Rome's power but also pays homage to its diverse influences from across Europe, Africa, and Asia. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, Rome continues to captivate our imagination with its rich history and enduring legacy.
