Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus, better known as Pompey the Great, was a prominent Roman politician and military leader during the late Republic era. His life and legacy are depicted in various artworks and historical artifacts. One such artwork is the chromolitho titled "Death of Pompey. " This piece captures the tragic end of this influential figure's life. Another painting, "The Head of Pompey Presented to Caesar, " portrays the aftermath of his death when his severed head was presented to Julius Caesar. In addition to these paintings, there are several studies for Lucain's epic poem "La Pharsale" that depict different scenes from Pompey's life. These studies offer glimpses into his military campaigns and political struggles. A denarius coin portraying Pompey further immortalizes him in history. Issued by the Roman Republic between 42-40 BCE, this coin showcases his likeness and symbolizes his power during that time. "The Battle of Pharsalus and the Death of Pompey" is another artwork that depicts a significant event in his life. This painting highlights both his military prowess and tragic demise on the battlefield. Engravings also play a role in preserving Pompey's image for future generations. They portray him as a formidable leader with immense influence over Roman politics and warfare.
