EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving of Ancient Rome, created by the German School in the 19th century, offers a vivid glimpse into the bustling city's past. The print showcases a vibrant harbour scene filled with activity and historical significance. In this image, we witness a chaotic moment as Roman soldiers disembark from their ships after a victorious conquest. The docks are teeming with people unloading goods and prisoners captured during warfare. Animals such as deer and even a rhinoceros add to the exotic atmosphere of this ancient port. The artist masterfully captures the despair of captives pleading for mercy while caged behind bars. Meanwhile, looting and plundering take place throughout the city streets, revealing both the spoils of war and horrors faced by conquered civilizations. Amidst all this chaos, one cannot help but notice women dressed in elaborate costumes adding an air of elegance to an otherwise grim scene. The presence of lions further emphasizes Rome's dominance over nature itself. This educational print not only transports us back in time but also serves as a reminder of Rome's military might and its impact on history. It is through images like these that we gain insight into ancient civilizations' triumphs and tribulations – moments frozen in time forever engraved within our collective memory.
