EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Roman civilization, the Veiquasio Optatos stele. The image captures a detailed section of a relief that depicts an ancient farm scene with great precision and artistry. In this particular fragment, we see a farmer standing beside a cart filled with barrels, pouring wine into one of them. Despite its age and damage, the carving still exudes beauty and sophistication. The intricate bas-relief technique used by the skilled ancient craftsmen is evident in every line and curve. The horizontal composition adds to the overall balance of the artwork. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the farmer himself, engrossed in his task as he carefully transfers wine into the cask on his cart. His human representation serves as a reminder of our shared history and connection to those who came before us. Adding further interest to this scene are two mules pulling the cart effortlessly. Their presence not only emphasizes their importance in transportation during ancient times but also highlights animal representation within art. This full-frame photograph allows us to appreciate every minute detail captured from this magnificent relic while transporting us back in time to witness an essential aspect of Roman life - winemaking. It's truly fascinating how such single objects can hold so much historical significance and artistic value.
