EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Roman tile from the 3rd century, discovered at Fishbourne Roman palace near Chichester in Sussex, England. The tile bears an intriguing human footprint and a shoeprint, providing us with a tangible connection to the ancient civilization that once thrived there. The vibrant colors of this artifact bring to life the concept of time travel as we are transported back to an era long gone. The absence of modernity allows us to fully immerse ourselves in the rich history and cultural significance encapsulated within this small object. As we gaze upon this relic, we can't help but ponder about the individual who left their mark on it centuries ago. Was it a worker constructing one of the grand structures at Fishbourne Roman villa? Or perhaps just an ordinary person passing by? Photographer CM Dixon skillfully captures every intricate detail, ensuring that even through his lens, we can sense the presence of Homo sapiens who once walked these grounds. Mike Dixon's expertise shines through as he preserves not only an artifact but also our collective heritage. This print serves as a reminder that beneath our feet lies layers upon layers of stories waiting to be unearthed.
