EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching with brown wash, titled "Hadrian's Tomb, 1833" transports us back in time to ancient Rome. The print, created by Agostino Tofanelli and engraved by Pietro Fontana, captures the grandeur of Hadrian's mausoleum known as Castel Sant'Angelo. Built in the early 2nd century AD as a final resting place for Emperor Hadrian and his family, this monumental structure stands tall on the banks of the Tiber River. Its imposing dome dominates the skyline while reflecting its rich history and architectural brilliance. Intriguingly, over time, Castel Sant'Angelo transformed from a tomb into a fortress during the Middle Ages. It became an integral part of Rome's defense system and served various purposes throughout history. The etching also showcases Ponte Sant'Angelo or Pons Aelius, a bridge built by Hadrian himself in 134 AD. This iconic bridge has witnessed countless stories unfold along its arches as it connects both sides of the river. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Fine Art Finder's Stapleton Collection, we are reminded of Rome's timeless allure. The image offers us a panoramic view that encompasses not only historical landmarks but also St. Peter's Basilica in all its glory. With every brushstroke captured meticulously by Tofanelli and Fontana’s engraving skills brought to life through their collaboration; this artwork serves as an exquisite testament to Italy’s rich cultural heritage that continues to captivate art enthusiasts worldwide.
