EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Plate 7: Emperor Galba on Horseback, a remarkable piece from The First Twelve Roman Caesars after Tempes. Created by the talented Antonio Tempesta in the 17th century, this ancient Roman artwork beautifully captures the essence of Emperor Galba's reign. In this stunning etching and engraving, we witness Emperor Galba proudly seated atop his majestic horse. Clad in intricate armor with an ostrich feather adorning his helmet, he exudes power and authority. His strong presence is further accentuated by the braided mane of his noble steed. Matthaus Merian skillfully captured every detail of this historical moment, showcasing not only the emperor but also other horsemen riding alongside him. The artist's attention to detail is evident in each stroke of his pen as he brings to life the concept of ancient Rome. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this Renaissance masterpiece takes us back in time to witness a significant era in history. It serves as a reminder of the grandeur and opulence that once characterized Roman society. As we gaze upon this remarkable portrait, we are transported to a different world - one filled with emperors and warriors who shaped our understanding of ancient civilizations. This print allows us to appreciate both Matthaus Merian's artistic talent and Antonio Tempesta's ability to capture history through their work.
