EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Denarius coin from 60 BCE, issued by the Roman Republic and depicting the powerful God Quirinus. The image captures the intricate details of this ancient artifact, highlighting its significance in both art and history. The coin features a close-up view of Quirinus, with his head portrayed in stunning clarity against a grey background. The artist's skill is evident in every line and curve that brings this deity to life. Quirinus was an important figure in Roman mythology, associated with war and protection. The use of color adds depth to the coin's design, enhancing its visual appeal. The silver metal shines through subtly, reminding us of the craftsmanship involved in creating such coins during ancient times. Displayed within an art gallery at the Art Institute Chicago, this piece represents one among many treasures from Rome's rich heritage. It serves as a reminder of the artistic achievements and religious beliefs that shaped ancient Mediterranean civilizations. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured by an unknown photographer, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the beauty and cultural significance encapsulated within this small yet mighty denarius coin.
