The Romans Paying Off Dutch Old Men for the Services of Young Ones,
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating etching by the renowned Italian artist, Antonio Tempesta, published in 1612. This intriguing work of art is part of Tempesta's series, "The War of the Romans Against the Batavians," specifically plate 2. The image transports us back to the 17th century, during a time of conflict between the ancient Romans and the Batavians, a Germanic tribe from present-day Netherlands. In this powerful depiction, Tempesta masterfully illustrates the Romans' strategy to defeat the Batavian rebellion. The Romans, dressed in armor and carrying weapons, are seen in the foreground, engaging in negotiations with a group of elderly Dutch men. The old men, with furrowed brows and anxious expressions, appear to be in deep thought as they discuss the terms of surrender. In the background, young Batavian prisoners are held captive, their hands bound and their eyes filled with despair. Tempesta's use of chiaroscuro, the contrast between light and dark, adds depth and drama to the scene. The etching's black and white tones create a stark contrast between the Romans, who are bathed in light, and the Batavians, who are shrouded in darkness. The intricate details of the figures and their clothing, as well as the lettering and text, add to the historical authenticity of the artwork. This etching is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering insights into the culture, history, and art of the 17th century. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the ancient Roman world, European history, or the Baroque era. Today, this masterpiece can be found on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), in the United States, where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world.
