EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Geese of the Capitol" takes us back to ancient Rome, capturing a moment in history with incredible detail and artistry. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases the iconic geese that played a significant role in Roman folklore. The image depicts a group of geese standing proudly on the steps of the Capitol, symbolizing their heroic act of saving Rome from an invasion. According to legend, these vigilant birds alerted the Romans to an impending attack by Gauls during the night, enabling them to defend their city successfully. The intricate engravings bring out every feather and contour of each goose, highlighting their regal presence against the backdrop of ancient architecture. The attention to detail is remarkable as it captures not only the physical attributes but also conveys a sense of pride and bravery associated with these animals. Originally featured in Victor Duruy's "History of Rome" this digitally cleaned image allows us to appreciate its beauty without any distractions. Preserved within a private collection today, this engraving serves as a reminder of how even nature can play an essential role in shaping human history. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back through time—immersing ourselves into ancient Roman culture and witnessing firsthand one small yet significant chapter that forever etched itself into their legacy.
