EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "CERES ENTHRONED" showcases the Roman goddess Ceres, who is revered as the deity responsible for the growth of food plants. The image depicts her majestically seated on a throne, with an exquisite line engraving capturing every intricate detail. This particular artwork is based on a wall painting discovered in Pompeii during the 19th century. Ceres' association with wheat is prominently displayed in this enchanting portrayal, symbolizing her role as the guardian of bountiful harvests and agricultural abundance. As she sits gracefully upon her throne, one can almost feel her divine presence emanating from the print. The ancient Roman civilization held Ceres in high regard due to their reliance on agriculture for sustenance and survival. Her significance extended beyond Rome itself, resonating throughout various regions influenced by Hellenic culture such as Greece and other parts of Europe. This remarkable piece not only captures the essence of Ceres but also serves as a testament to ancient artistry and craftsmanship. It allows us to appreciate both the skillful technique employed by the engraver and our connection to historical artifacts that have stood the test of time. As we gaze upon this extraordinary image, we are reminded of humanity's eternal fascination with mythology and its ability to inspire awe through artistic expression.
