The Herulians Proclaim Odoacer as King of Italy, Marking the End of the Western Roman Empire
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This chromolitho print captures a pivotal moment in history when the Herulians, an influential barbarian tribe, acclaim their chief Odoacer as the King of Italy. The year is 476 and this event symbolizes the final blow to the once mighty Western Roman Empire. In this artwork by European School from the 19th century, we witness a scene filled with historical significance. Odoacer stands tall and proud at the center, his shield held high above him. His charismatic leadership and growing popularity among his people have propelled him to this momentous position. The image provides us with a glimpse into Europe's turbulent past during the 5th century. A map in the background hints at widespread migration and upheaval caused by various barbarian tribes. It serves as a reminder that power dynamics were shifting dramatically during this era. This educational piece offers valuable insight into one of history's turning points - where ancient Rome gave way to new kingdoms emerging across Europe. As we contemplate this artwork, we are reminded of how civilizations rise and fall, leaving behind legacies that shape our world today. Through its intricate details and vibrant colors, this chromolitho print transports us back in time to witness firsthand an event that forever altered European history - heralding both an end and a new beginning for Italy and beyond.
