EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored copperplate engraving, titled "Woman loading wheat, melons and vegetables onto a Roman two-wheeled farm cart (Plaustrum)" is an exquisite piece from Robert von Spalart's Historical Picture of the Costumes of the Principal People of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages, published in 1796. The image portrays a determined woman skillfully loading various produce onto a traditional Roman farming cart, a Plaustrum. The cart, pulled by two oxen, is a testament to the simplicity and efficiency of ancient agricultural methods. The woman wears a simple yet practical tunic, her arms bare and strong from the labor of harvesting the bountiful crops. In her hands, she holds a basket filled with ripe melons and a large sack of wheat. The melons, with their vibrant orange hues, contrast beautifully against the earthy tones of the wheat and the woman's clothing. The background of the engraving is filled with the verdant greens of the fields and the rolling hills, adding to the idyllic scene of rural life in ancient Rome. The meticulous detail in the engraving, from the textures of the woman's clothing to the intricate patterns on the cart, showcases the exceptional craftsmanship of the time. This image offers a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of ancient Roman tribes, highlighting their reliance on agriculture and the importance of hard work and resourcefulness in providing for their communities. The rich history and culture of the Roman people are brought to life in this stunning and intricately detailed handcolored copperplate engraving.
