EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithography print showcases a significant moment in the Roman political system, depicting the legendary king of Rome, Numa Pompilius (-715, -672), entrusting the sacred shield to the Salian priests. Created by an unknown artist in the late 19th century, this artwork offers a glimpse into ancient Roman traditions and rituals. In this scene, King Numa Pompilius is seen on horseback, his regal presence commanding attention. With outstretched arm and a solemn expression on his face, he hands over the sacred shield to the Salian priests. The shield itself symbolizes protection and divine favor for Rome's military endeavors. The composition exudes a sense of reverence and spirituality as religious order meets royal authority. The horses surrounding King Numa add an element of power and strength to the image while also representing their significance in ancient warfare. Stefano Bianchetti's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke of this chromolithograph. The vibrant colors bring life to each character and object portrayed within this historical tableau. As we gaze upon this print from our private collection today, we are reminded of Rome's rich history and its intricate political structure that shaped Western civilization. It serves as a testament to both artistic skill and historical documentation – capturing an important moment in time for all who appreciate antiquity.
