EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable "Portrait of the Roman Emperor Septimius Severus" from the early 3rd century AD. The image captures a moment frozen in time, allowing us to glimpse into the powerful presence and regal demeanor of this renowned ruler. Septimius Severus, who reigned as Emperor from 193 until his death in 211, left an indelible mark on history. This portrait was discovered in The Hermitage collection in St Petersburg and is a testament to the enduring legacy of ancient Rome. The sculpture depicts a distinguished man with a strong jawline and piercing eyes that exude authority. His neatly trimmed beard frames his face, adding an air of wisdom and maturity. With curly hair cascading over his forehead, he emanates both strength and sophistication. Carved meticulously out of marble by skilled artisans, this bust exemplifies the exceptional craftsmanship prevalent during the Roman Empire's zenith. Every detail is intricately rendered - from the intricate lines etched onto his forehead to the subtle creases around his mouth - capturing not just physical likeness but also conveying character. As we gaze upon this magnificent work of art, we are transported back through time to witness one of Rome's most influential leaders at its height. It serves as a poignant reminder of our shared human history and offers insight into an era long past yet forever etched within our collective memory.
