EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing "View of the Temple of Venus and Rome, ruins" captured in 1833 by Agostino Tofanelli. The etching with brown wash technique adds a touch of elegance to this historical masterpiece. The temple, dedicated to Venus Felix and Roma Aeterna, was built as an homage to the mythical mother of Aeneas and eternal Rome itself. It stood as a testament to ancient Roman architecture until its closure in 391 AD, making it the last pagan temple still in use at that time. The image reveals intricate details such as the apses and diamond-shaped coffers added during restoration work carried out by Maxentius in 307 AD. The courtyard boasts a majestic fountain while priests can be seen conversing near the cella. Pietro Fontana skillfully engraved this scene for inclusion in Recueil des vues au bister dessinees et lavees par Callimachus, Souvenirs d antiquites et curiosites de Rome et des environs, Deblayements et reparations du Pape Pie VII. This stunning print is part of The Stapleton Collection and offers viewers a glimpse into ancient Roman religious practices. It serves as a reminder of the rich history embedded within these ruins and invites contemplation on how civilizations evolve over time.
