EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Roman tripods and sacrificial brazier" takes us back to the ancient city of Rome in 1802. The print showcases three remarkable objects: a tripod belonging to the Heirs of the Ecoma, Casa Casali; another tripod owned by French sculptor Antoine-Guillaume Granjacquet; and a metal brazier used for sacrifices. The intricate details of these Roman artifacts are beautifully captured in this copperplate engraving by Pietro Ruga, based on an illustration by Lorenzo Rocceggiani. The engravings were part of Rocceggiani's renowned work "100 Plates of Costumes Religious, Civil and Military of the Ancient Egyptians, Etruscans, Greeks and Romans". Each object tells its own story - from the historical significance attached to them to their ornate decorations. These pieces not only serve as reminders of ancient rituals but also showcase exquisite craftsmanship. Displayed against a backdrop reminiscent of interior design from the 19th century, this print transports us into a world where antiquity meets artistry. It invites us to appreciate both the beauty and cultural importance that these objects held during their time. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but marvel at how it captures a moment frozen in time - one that allows us to connect with our past while appreciating the artistic mastery behind these Roman treasures.
