Allegories of Antiquity Dark Academia Collage Cushion

Perfect for classical scholar or anyone who loves the history of ancient Rome, this striking collage gathers a series of allegorical and antique figures drawn from Roman monuments and coins as well as two insets showing Italian war carts or carroccios from Cremona and Padua. A powerful figure, probably Jupiter, holds a sceptre and thunderbolt, with a smaller attendant figure at his side. Adapted from a series of 18th century engravings from Thesaurus Antiquitatum et Historiarum Italiae edited by Johann Georg Graevius and published by Pieter van der Aa.
