Created by an unknown artist, this remarkable piece of art is a testament to the rich history of Ancient Rome and its powerful empire. The image captures a close-up view of the coin, revealing intricate details and vibrant colors on a grey background. The portrait depicts Empress Salonina, also known as Julia Cornelia Salonina, who was married to Emperor Valerian during her reign from 260-268 AD. Salonina's regal presence shines through in this studio shot, showcasing her royal status and undeniable beauty. As one gazes upon this historical artifact, it transports us back in time to an era where women played significant roles in shaping empires. This rare coin serves not only as a currency but also as a symbol of wealth and power during that period. Its preservation allows us to appreciate the craftsmanship and artistic skill employed by ancient Roman artisans. Displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago's Arts of the Ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium collection, this photograph invites viewers into a world long gone yet still alive through such extraordinary relics.
