Empires end. Images of power remain.
Imperium Aeternum I brings together two figures separated by centuries and civilizations: Augustus, Roman emperor, and Ramses II, pharaoh of ancient Egypt. Two representations of sovereignty, considered through ink drawing.
Their histories are not the same. The periods, cultures and visual languages through which authority was represented are different. Yet both figures still reach us through images that have endured long after their lives.
How much of power belongs to the person who holds it, and how much to the image that survives their disappearance?
In this selection, the two works become different witnesses to the same question. Not whether empires can last forever, but why their images sometimes seem to.
Each fine art print is printed to order in my studio and prepared for dispatch within 2-4 business days.
