EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back in time to ancient Rome, showcasing the esteemed historian Titus Livius Patavinus. The print, created by Andre Thevet and engraved by Thomas Campanella De Laumessin, is a remarkable piece of art that captures the essence of this renowned writer. Titus Livius Patavinus, more commonly known as Livy, was an influential figure in Roman history. His works have provided invaluable insights into the rise and fall of the Roman Empire. In this half-length portrait, Livy is depicted with great attention to detail - from his fashionable clothing to his quill pen poised above a book. The image exudes an air of intellectualism and sophistication. It not only showcases Livy's dedication to writing but also pays homage to the importance of literature during that era. Surrounding him are stacks of books and textbooks, symbolizing his vast knowledge and contribution to historical records. Through this engraving, we gain a glimpse into both the physical appearance and intellectual prowess of one of history's greatest historians. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, their contributions continue to shape our understanding of ancient civilizations. Bridgeman Images has once again curated a masterpiece from their Fine Art Finder collection – allowing us all to appreciate the beauty and significance captured within this single frame.
