EDITORS COMMENTS
This postcard print titled "Incendie de Rome, Great fire of Rome" takes us back to the ancient city during a moment of chaos and destruction. Created by Jan Styka in 1910, this piece captures the historical event that unfolded on July 19,64 AD - the infamous Great Fire of Rome. The image showcases the grandeur and madness of this catastrophic incident. Flames engulf buildings while billowing smoke fills the sky, creating an atmosphere of fear and panic. Amidst the chaos stands Emperor Nero, often associated with this devastating event. Holding a lyre in his hand, he symbolizes both his love for music and his alleged indifference towards the plight of his people. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every brushstroke brings life to this scene from antiquity. The architectural elements reflect ancient Roman structures while capturing their vulnerability against raging flames. This postcard print not only serves as a visual reminder of history but also evokes contemplation about power dynamics and human nature. It invites viewers to ponder upon Nero's role in this tragedy and raises questions about leadership responsibilities. As we gaze at this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness one of Rome's most significant events unfold before our eyes. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst destruction, art has the power to immortalize moments forever etched into history.
