EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Tetradrachm coin from ancient Rome, dating back to around 265 AD. The coin features a close-up portrait of Empress Salonina, the wife of Emperor Valerian. Created by an unknown artist, this piece is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the time. The image captures Salonina's regal beauty and grace, with her head turned slightly to one side against a neutral grey background. Her features are delicately rendered in exquisite detail, highlighting her status as royalty. This stunning portrayal reflects the importance placed on female figures in Roman society. The coin itself is made of billon, a silver alloy commonly used for currency during that era. Its color has been preserved remarkably well over centuries, adding to its historical significance. The letterbox format allows us to appreciate every intricate element of this ancient artifact. Displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago's Arts of the Ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium collection, this photograph offers viewers an opportunity to delve into the rich heritage and culture of ancient Rome. It serves as a reminder that even small objects like coins can hold immense historical value and provide valuable insights into past civilizations. As we gaze upon this remarkable image captured by an anonymous artist long ago, we are transported back in time to witness the grandeur and splendor associated with Empress Salonina's reign within the Roman Empire.
