EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Hannibal crossing the Rhone, 218 BC" takes us back to a pivotal moment in history during the Second Punic War. Created by artist Gilbert between 1882-1884, this artwork depicts the audacious Carthaginian general Hannibal leading his army across the mighty Rhone River. In this scene of ingenious military strategy, we witness Hannibal's men riding on rafts alongside majestic elephants as they navigate through the flowing waters. The print beautifully captures both the bravery of these soldiers and the sheer magnitude of their journey. As we delve into history, we learn that Hannibal's daring campaign began in Spain and led him through Gaul before he embarked on an arduous trek across the Alps into northern Italy. Along this treacherous path, he achieved remarkable victories over Roman forces at three significant battles: Trebia, Lake Trasimene, and Cannae. The monochrome aesthetic adds a sense of timelessness to this engraving from La France et les Francais a Travers les Siecle. It transports us back to ancient Europe while emphasizing the importance of geography as a strategic element in warfare. Through this powerful image, we are reminded not only of Hannibal's military prowess but also of humanity's enduring fascination with tales of courage and conquest. This print serves as a testament to our collective desire for exploration and triumph against all odds.
