EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Justice among the ancient Helvetii," transports us back in time to witness a scene of law and order among the Celtic inhabitants of Switzerland. The meticulous detail and expert craftsmanship by artist Edouard Ravel bring to life this moment from Professor W Rosier's "Histoire de la Suisse" published in 1911.
In this depiction, we see a group of stern-looking judges presiding over a court session, symbolizing the importance placed on justice within the Helvetian society. The figures exude authority and wisdom as they deliberate over matters of judgement and fairness.
The black and white contrast adds a sense of gravitas to the scene, emphasizing the seriousness with which these ancient people approached matters of law. The intricate details in their attire and surroundings provide insight into the culture and customs of this early European civilization.
As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are reminded of the enduring significance of justice throughout human history. It serves as a timeless reminder that principles such as fairness, equality, and accountability have always been integral to societies around the world. This engraving is not just a visual representation but also a powerful testament to our shared values as human beings striving for righteousness and truth.
