EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of an Emperor from either the Eastern or Western Empire during the fifth century BC. Taken in 1924 by Herbert Norris, a renowned artist and author of "Costume & Fashion - The Evolution of European Dress Through the Earlier Ages" this image showcases his expertise in historical illustration. The Emperor stands tall with his arm raised, gesturing with authority and power. His regal attire consists of a magnificent cloak draped over his shoulders, adorned with a brooch that signifies his status. From head to toe, every detail is meticulously captured; his hairdo styled impeccably and jewelry carefully chosen to enhance his royal appearance. Norris's portrayal transports us back in time to ancient Rome, evoking a sense of awe for this majestic figure who once ruled over vast lands. The monochrome effect adds depth and intensity to the portrait, emphasizing both the grandeur of the Emperor's presence and the rich history he represents. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded not only of our fascination with fashion throughout centuries but also our enduring curiosity about those who shaped empires long ago. It serves as a testament to Norris's talent as an artist and historian while offering us a glimpse into an era that continues to captivate our imagination.
