EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the Roman civilization of the 1st century A. D. , showcasing a remarkable fresco that depicts a scene from Menander's comedy, The Possessed Girl. The artwork, painted on plaster in Stabiae, Italy between 30-40 A. D. , measures 29x38 cm and offers an intriguing glimpse into ancient theatrical performances. In this full-length portrayal, we witness itinerant musicians from Italy entertaining the audience with their melodic talents. Four men can be seen passionately playing various instruments, with one musician skillfully handling a tambourine. Dressed in period costumes that transport us to the imperial age of Rome, these actors bring life and joy to the stage. The fresco not only showcases the artistic prowess of its creator but also provides valuable insights into ancient Roman culture and history. It serves as a testament to their appreciation for music and performing arts events during this era. As we gaze upon this illustration and painting today, we are reminded of how art transcends time and connects us with our past. It allows us to marvel at the talent and creativity of those who came before us while offering glimpses into their daily lives. This print is an invaluable piece of antiquity that captures both the essence of Roman civilization in its heyday and highlights the enduring power of art throughout human history.
