EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Marble Roman relief of a boy and a horse, originating from Hadrian's villa in Tivoli during the 1st century. The exquisite craftsmanship imitates the classical Greek designs prevalent in the 5th century, highlighting the artistic influence of different cultures on ancient Rome. The sculpture depicts a young boy standing beside an elegant horse, both captured in full length. With his arm raised and gesturing gracefully, the boy exudes a sense of movement and liveliness. The profile view emphasizes their harmonious connection as they stand side by side. Displayed at the esteemed British Museum, this artifact offers us an intimate glimpse into Roman life and artistry. The nakedness of both figures symbolizes purity and innocence while showcasing their physical beauty with great finesse. Located in Tivoli, Lazio region of Italy, Hadrian's villa is renowned for its architectural grandeur and historical significance. This artwork serves as a testament to Emperor Hadrian's love for arts and culture during his reign (24 January 76 - 10 July 138). It stands as an enduring reminder of Rome's rich heritage and its deep appreciation for aesthetics. Through this photo print, we are transported back to ancient times where art flourished amidst magnificent buildings like Hadrian's villa.
