EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: "Plate 29: Germany Conquered by Drusus, an Engraved Print Depicting the Triumph of the Roman Empire". This print, created by Jacob Neeffs in the 17th century, showcases Plate 29 from Guillielmus Becanuss Serenissimi Principis Ferdinandi. The artwork portrays a significant historical event where Germany is conquered by Drusus, a celebrated Roman conqueror. In this striking image, we witness Drusus on horseback as he assumes a commanding posture. His regal presence symbolizes his role as both emperor and conqueror. Kneeling before him are defeated German figures representing the country's submission to Rome's might. Neeffs' meticulous engraving technique brings depth and detail to every element of this composition. The flemish artist skillfully captures the essence of this pivotal moment in history through his intricate lines and shading. The print serves as a testament to the power dynamics between nations during ancient times while highlighting Rome's dominance over its conquered territories. It also reflects Neef's mastery in portraying historical events with accuracy and artistic flair. Currently housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this piece offers viewers an opportunity to delve into centuries-old history through visual storytelling. Its presence within their collection further solidifies its significance as a valuable heritage art piece that continues to captivate audiences today.
