EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of Galloromain art: a back carrier. The low relief sculpture was discovered during the excavations of Lutece, dating back to 50 BC-100 AD. Currently housed in the Musee Carnavalet in Paris, France, this artifact offers a glimpse into the rich history and artistic prowess of the Gallo-Roman civilization. The intricate carving depicts a human figure carrying what appears to be a burden on their back. The attention to detail is astonishing, with every muscle and facial expression expertly rendered. This artwork exemplifies the skill and craftsmanship that thrived during ancient times. Lutece, known today as Paris, was once an important city within the Roman Empire. This relic serves as a testament to its significance and provides valuable insights into daily life during this period. The fusion of French architecture and Roman influence is evident in this piece, highlighting the cultural exchange between Gaulish tribes and their conquerors from Rome. It represents not only an artistic achievement but also symbolizes historical connections between different civilizations. As we admire this photograph captured by Photo Josse, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the beauty and ingenuity of Galloromain artistry. Let us appreciate how these ancient masterpieces continue to inspire awe even after centuries have passed.
