EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Rome Saved By The Sacred Geese Of Juno" takes us back to a historic moment in ancient Italy. Captured from the pages of H. G. Wells' renowned book, "The Outline of History" published in 1920, this image transports us to the heart of Rome's legendary past. In this vertical composition, we witness an awe-inspiring scene unfolding within the fortified walls of Rome's Capitolium. Climbing up its imposing fortification are brave warriors - soldiers who have been tasked with defending their beloved city against invading Gauls. However, it is not solely human strength that will save Rome on this fateful day. As our eyes wander towards the center of the frame, we encounter a group of sacred geese surrounding Juno's statue. These divine birds play a crucial role in protecting Rome by alerting its garrison to the approaching danger. Their watchful presence symbolizes both faith and resilience as they become unexpected heroes in this battle for survival. Photographer Ken Welsh masterfully captures this historic event through his skillful use of photogravure technique. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth to every detail, enhancing our connection with these courageous warriors and their feathered allies. This print serves as a powerful reminder that sometimes salvation comes from unexpected sources – even from creatures deemed ordinary or insignificant at first glance. It invites us to reflect on how history can be shaped by both human determination and unforeseen interventions beyond
