Bring a layered view of Roman history into your home. Part of the La Civiltà Romana collection, Augustus & the City of Rome Photo Print features an image created in 1988 by three-time Oscar-winning cinematographer Vittorio Storaro. A sculptural portrait of Augustus overlaps a sweeping view of Rome, with the river winding through the composition in pale blue against detailed, dark city tones.
Each print carries Vittorio Storaro's signature, printed with the image.
What makes this image distinctive is the craft behind it. Storaro created the double exposure directly in the film camera, without Photoshop. The original film image shown in the second product photo reveals the layered composition already captured on film, offering a glimpse into the artistry behind the finished print.
This Roman wall art gives a study, living room, or reading corner a thoughtful focal point. Pair it with favorite history books, travel keepsakes, or simple furnishings that let its intricate details stand out.
For anyone seeking ancient Rome home decor with a meaningful story, this fine art print connects an iconic historical figure with the city itself. It’s a piece to explore up close, share with guests, and enjoy as part of your everyday surroundings.
