EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant print captures a glimpse into the bustling streets of Ostia, the ancient Roman port. Dating back to the 1st century, this street is lined with magnificent arched architecture that showcases the grandeur of Roman civilisation. The focal point of this image is the Via Decumenus theatre on the left, a remarkable structure that was first built in the 1st century BC and later reconstructed in 196 AD. The photograph's vivid colors bring to life the essence of this historical location in Italy's Lazio region. As you gaze upon this scene, you can almost imagine merchants traversing these very streets, engaged in lively trade and commerce. The perspective captured by CM Dixon transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate both the scale and intricacy of Roman urban planning. Every lane and avenue tells a story about Rome's rich cultural heritage. This print serves as a visual testament to Ostia's significance as an important port city during ancient times. It invites viewers to explore not only its architectural marvels but also ponder upon concepts such as trade routes and connections between civilizations.
