EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic meeting between Hannibal and the Ceutrones, a Celtic tribe of ancient Gaul, during his momentous crossing of the Alps in 218 BC. The image is sourced from Hutchinsons History of the Nations, published in 1915 by English School. Hannibal's progress through hostile territories was greatly assisted by his good relations with many tribes along his journey. This encounter with the Ceutrones not only secured a line of retreat for him but also showcased his diplomatic skills and ability to forge alliances. The photograph provides a glimpse into an era when civilizations clashed and people fought for dominance over vast lands. It serves as a valuable archival record, preserving this significant historical event for future generations to appreciate. The composition features Hannibal surrounded by members of the Ceutrones tribe against the backdrop of majestic mountains. The engraving beautifully captures their interaction, conveying both tension and curiosity between these two ancient cultures. Through this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness one chapter in Hannibal's remarkable march across Europe during the Punic Wars. It reminds us of our shared human history and highlights how connections were forged even amidst conflicts. Ken Welsh's expert curation ensures that this piece remains an invaluable addition to any collection dedicated to exploring ancient civilizations and their encounters on this planet we call home.
