EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling main street of Ostia, the ancient Roman port city. The Via Decumanius, as it was known, stretches out before us with its vibrant colors and majestic columns that have stood the test of time. This snapshot from the 2nd century transports us to a bygone era when trade and commerce thrived in this strategic location. The ruins of Ostia Antica evoke a sense of awe and wonder as we contemplate the once-thriving civilization that inhabited these streets. As we gaze upon this landscape, we can almost hear the echoes of footsteps and chatter from centuries past. The image captures not only a physical road but also represents a symbol of connection between different cultures and civilizations. It serves as a reminder of Rome's dominance as an influential trading hub during its heyday. Photographer CM Dixon skillfully brings together elements such as pillars, lanes, and avenues to create an evocative composition that speaks volumes about the rich history embedded within these ruins. Through his lens, he invites us to explore this ancient city with fresh eyes. This print is more than just an artistic depiction; it serves as a window into our collective human heritage. Let it transport you back in time and ignite your imagination as you ponder on the grandeur and significance of Ostia's main street.
