EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a historical figure, Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus, in all his glory. The bust, carved from marble by an unknown Roman artist, stands at an impressive 87x62 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Château de Versailles in France. Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus was a renowned Roman general who lived between 237-183 BC. Known for his military prowess and strategic genius, he played a significant role in shaping ancient Rome's history. This portrait showcases him wearing armor and a breastplate, symbolizing his status as a warrior leader. The sculptor has meticulously captured every detail of Scipio Africanus' appearance - from his shaved head to his strong facial features. His bald head signifies not only practicality but also hints at the wisdom and experience that comes with age. This image serves as a testament to the artistic skill of both the sculptor and photographer alike. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured this masterpiece, allowing viewers to appreciate its beauty even if they cannot see it firsthand at Château de Versailles. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph print, we are transported back in time to witness the presence and power of one of Rome's greatest generals. It reminds us that art has the ability to transcend time and bring history alive before our eyes.
