EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a wall adorned with breathtaking frescoes from Pompeii, now carefully preserved in the prestigious National Archaeological Museum of Naples. The image takes us back to the Imperial Period of Roman Art, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Europe's ancient civilization. The date of this photograph is estimated to be around 1900, while the original artwork on display dates back even further, approximately between 40-79 AD. The mural painting depicted here reflects an exquisite combination of building elements and decorative sections, showcasing intricate architectural details such as columns and putti figures. Immersed in literature and fiction, these ancient frescoes transport us to another time period where individuals dressed in elaborate costumes that were fashionable during that era. The clothing accessories worn by these figures add depth and authenticity to their appearance. Vegetal elements or compositions are also present within this remarkable piece of Roman art. Lush vegetation intertwines with the scenes depicted on the walls, creating a harmonious blend between nature and human creativity. As we admire this festooned masterpiece from the Imperial Period, it becomes evident how mantles cloaks played a significant role in fashion during those times. These garments not only served practical purposes but were also considered symbols of status and elegance. Captured by Alinari Fratelli through their lens, this photograph allows us to appreciate these extraordinary frescoes without commercial intentions. It serves as a reminder of our shared history and invites us to delve deeper into the wonders left behind by past civilizations.
