EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the ancient Roman city of Pompeii, Italy. The image showcases the exquisite peristyle of the House of the Vettii, a remarkable example of Roman architecture and design. Dating back to the late 1st century BC, this house offers a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle enjoyed by its wealthy owners. The peristyle, with its grand columns and meticulously manicured garden, serves as an outdoor oasis within the confines of this magnificent residence. The symmetrical layout and intricate details speak volumes about the sophistication and taste prevalent during that era. Despite being buried under layers of volcanic ash for centuries after Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD, Pompeii's ruins have provided archaeologists with invaluable insights into daily life during Roman times. This photochrome print captures not only the physical beauty but also preserves a moment frozen in time. As we admire this photograph from between 1890-1900, it is impossible not to be awestruck by both its historical significance and artistic allure. It reminds us how even after more than two millennia since its creation, Pompeii continues to captivate our imagination and serve as a testament to human ingenuity.
