EDITORS COMMENTS
This copperplate engraving, created by Jan Luyken from Abraham Bogaert's "De Roomsche Monarchy" published in Utrecht in 1697, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and religious fervor of ancient Rome. The image portrays a sacred ritual taking place before the Temple of Jupiter Optimus Maximus, or Jupiter Capitolinus, one of the most important temples in the Roman pantheon. At the heart of the scene, Roman priests perform their solemn duties, tending to the altar and offering incense to the gods. In the foreground, other figures can be seen ritually slaughtering bulls, their faces etched with concentration and determination. The blood from the sacrificed animals spills onto the altar, a token of devotion and respect. The Temple of Jupiter, an architectural marvel, stands proudly in the background. Its Corinthian columns and intricate carvings evoke a sense of awe and reverence. The emperor, Aurelian or Lucius Domitius Aurelianus, may be depicted among the crowd, paying homage to the god of the sky and thunder. This engraving is a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of ancient Rome. It provides a window into the daily life and religious practices of the Roman people, offering a glimpse into the past that continues to captivate and inspire us today.
