EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print transports us back in time to the beautiful Italian city of Siena, showcasing the enduring legacy of its rich history and mythology. At the heart of the scene is a magnificent statue of Romulus and Remus, the legendary founders of Rome, nestled within the intricately carved Corinthian capital. The brothers are depicted as infants being suckled by a she-wolf, an iconic symbol of Siena's proud heritage. According to the ancient Roman legend, Siena was founded by Senius, the son of Remus, who was the brother of Romulus. The story goes that Romulus and Remus were abandoned at birth and left to die, but were miraculously saved by a she-wolf who nursed them. They were later discovered and raised by a shepherd, Faustulus, and grew up to found the twin cities of Rome and Alba Longa. The statue, which dates back to the 1910s, is a fine example of the exquisite art and architectural detail that can be found throughout Siena. The Corinthian capital, a classical architectural order characterized by its ornate decorative elements, is a fitting backdrop for this iconic scene. The intricate carvings and sculptural details showcase the masterful craftsmanship of the artisans of the time, and the she-wolf emblem can be seen across the city, proudly representing Siena's unique history and connection to the foundational myth of Rome.
