EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to ancient Rome, immersing us in the rich history and military prowess of this legendary civilization. The image showcases a Roman slinger, meticulously recreated after a figure found on the iconic Column of Antoninus in Rome. Published in 1889 as part of the Imperial Bible Dictionary, this print beautifully captures the essence of an ancient warrior. The Roman slinger stands tall and proud, his weapon at the ready. With intense focus and unwavering determination etched upon his face, he embodies the spirit of a skilled soldier trained for warfare. This particular column was erected to honor Emperor Antoninus Pius and serves as a testament to Rome's military might during its peak. The slinger's expertise lies in using funditores - sling weapons that were highly effective projectiles capable of inflicting significant damage from afar. These formidable warriors played an integral role in ancient battles, utilizing their precision and strength to hurl stones or lead bullets with astonishing accuracy. Ken Welsh's masterful photography transports us directly into this historical moment, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry behind these figures and their significance within Roman culture. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded once again of Rome's enduring legacy as one of history's greatest civilizations – forever immortalized through art like this stunning depiction on display before our eyes.
