EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an extraordinary archaeological artifact from ancient Virunum, Austria. The relief depicts iuvenes, or young men, skillfully mounted on powerful horses, evoking the spirit of Roman civilization in the 2nd century A. D. Against a striking black background in a studio setting, this horizontal composition immediately draws attention to the intricate details and masterful craftsmanship of this ancient artwork. The shield held by one of the iuvenes symbolizes their warrior-like nature and highlights their role as defenders of their civilization. Although incomplete, this relic still exudes an aura of strength and resilience that transcends time. The male likenesses portrayed here reflect the idealized beauty standards prevalent during ancient Rome's golden age. Their confident posture while horseback riding suggests both physical prowess and military expertise. As an animal representation within art and craft, these majestic horses add another layer of symbolism to the relief. They embody power, grace, and loyalty – qualities highly valued by Roman society. This remarkable photograph not only serves as a visual testament to our rich historical heritage but also invites us to ponder upon the achievements and aspirations of those who came before us. It is a window into a distant past that continues to captivate our imagination with its timeless allure.
