EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history, the Stela from the High Imperial Period. Created during the Roman Imperial Period between 27 BC and 395 AD, this stone sculpture is located in Timgad, Algeria. The intricate details and craftsmanship are evident in this artwork by Gerard Degeorge. The stela depicts a couple, with the focus on the female figure who stands elegantly adorned in her toga. Her husband stands beside her, both captured in relief sculpture that brings them to life. The artist has skillfully captured their features and expressions, allowing us to glimpse into their lives during ancient times. Intricate decorations surround the couple; ornate patterns adorn every corner of this votive stele. A sheep can be seen at their feet, symbolizing fertility or perhaps an offering made for religious purposes. Timgad itself was a Roman colonial town founded by Emperor Trajan in 100 AD. This archaeological site holds great historical significance as it provides insights into life during the height of the Roman Empire. Gerard Degeorge's photograph immortalizes this beautiful artwork while also reminding us of our rich cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder that art transcends time and allows us to connect with civilizations long gone.
