Original artwork description:
This painting shows the head and other fragments of the colossal statue of Constantine, in the courtyard of the Palazzo dei Conservatori, one of the buildings of the Capitoline Museums complex in Rome. The story of ancient Rome tells that on 21 October 312 AD at the Ponte Milvio there was a famous battle between the army of Constantine and that of Maxentius. As the battle approached, a prodigious vision appeared in a dream to Constantine: the monogram of Christ, while a voice would have uttered the words “In hoc signo vinces”. which means "Go and you will win under this sign". With the edict of Milan in 313 A.D. Constantine established tolerance towards Christianity.
It was exhibited at the home of Parco Regionale dell'Appia Antica, Roma during “Premio Capitolium” group exhibition in May 2023
It was exhibited at the Area-Contesa-Arte Gallery in via Margutta, Roma during “Visioni astrali” solo exhibition in November 2023
