About this Artwork
Seven hundred and fifty-three years of Rome sit in one chair. J.C. Leyendecker paints his Roman Senator for Alfred Domett's A Christmas Hymn, printed in The Century Magazine in December 1905, giving him the jaw of a coin and the stare of a man who owns the room. Burnished brass armor catching lamplight. Carmine drapery spilling over cream stone, stitched with laurel borders the color of old bronze.
Above him the arch spells AVGVSTVS IMPERATOR across an indigo night pricked with stars. The Pax Romana at its smuggest. Vermilion wool pools over his knees, bordered in black and gold laurel braid. His gilded cuirass grins with a lion mask. Far past the SPQR plaque at his feet, a stable door leaks light into a province he will never name.
Then the smoke. Leyendecker's signature vapor rises from a gilt incense brazier in opal ribbons, coiling up his marble throne like a rumor he cannot swat. Golden Age illustration at full voltage. This vintage Roman Senator art print hides a Nativity inside a portrait of power, America's great painter of men gifting us a chiseled patrician frozen at the peak of empire.
