EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in the life of Cincinnatus, an esteemed Roman statesman and soldier. Painted by Charles Francois Poerson in 1799, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 109x96 cm and is currently housed at the Musee de Tesse in Le Mans, France. In the scene depicted, we witness Cincinnatus returning to his plough adorned with a laurel wreath. This symbolic gesture represents his rejection of power and heroism as he voluntarily relinquishes his position as dictator after rescuing Minucius. Despite being chosen for this prestigious role in 460 BC, Cincinnatus chooses to lay down his dictatorship just sixteen days later and return to his humble farm. The artist beautifully captures the essence of Cincinnatus' character through meticulous brushstrokes and vibrant colors. The viewer can almost feel the weight of responsibility lifted from Cincinnatus' shoulders as he embraces simplicity once again. This image serves as a powerful reminder that true greatness lies not only in achieving success but also knowing when to let go. It celebrates the virtues of humility, selflessness, and devotion to one's roots. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary act of courage that continues to inspire generations today.
