"Anno Domini" is a notable painting by the British artist Edwin Longsden Long, completed in 1883. Long, who was born in 1829 and passed away in 1891, was a prominent figure in the Victorian art scene, known for his detailed and evocative works that often drew upon historical and biblical themes. "Anno Domini" is a prime example of Long's skill in combining meticulous detail with a rich narrative context.

The painting depicts a poignant scene set in ancient Rome, capturing the moment when the Christian faith was beginning to spread across the Roman Empire. The title "Anno Domini," which translates to "In the Year of Our Lord," underscores the significance of the Christian era that the painting seeks to represent. The composition features a Roman family, with the central figure being a young woman holding a child, symbolizing the Madonna and Child. This imagery is a direct reference to the Virgin Mary and Jesus Christ, central figures in Christian iconography.

Long's use of light and shadow in "Anno Domini" is masterful, creating a dramatic atmosphere that enhances the emotional weight of the scene. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate rendering of the characters' clothing, the architectural elements, and the overall composition, which draws the viewer into the historical context of early Christianity. The painting reflects Long's deep interest in historical accuracy and his ability to convey complex narratives through his art.

"Anno Domini" was well-received in its time, contributing to Long's reputation as a leading artist of his era. Today, it remains an important work for its artistic merit and its depiction of a significant moment in religious history. The painting is housed in a prominent collection, continuing to be admired by art enthusiasts and historians alike.
