EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, titled "Tiberius Exiles" we are transported back to ancient Rome during the reign of the Roman Emperor Tiberius. Created by the talented artist Felix-Joseph Barrias in 1850, this masterpiece can be found in the prestigious collection of Musee d'Orsay in Paris. The painting depicts a poignant moment as Tiberius, known for his tyrannical rule and exile of political opponents, is shown banishing his adversaries from Rome. The scene is filled with emotion and tension as the exiles bid farewell to their beloved city and face an uncertain future. Barrias skillfully captures every detail on canvas using oil paints. His attention to historical accuracy shines through as he portrays not only the characters but also elements of mythology and allegory that were prevalent during that time period. This artwork serves as a powerful reminder of both history and literature, showcasing Barrias' mastery in history painting. It transports viewers into a different era, allowing us to witness firsthand the consequences of power abuse within an empire. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece at Musee d'Orsay, we cannot help but reflect on the complexities of human nature and how it has shaped our past. This print serves as a testament to Félix Joseph's artistic brilliance while offering us an opportunity for introspection about our own society today.
