EDITORS COMMENTS
Ancient Germanic Warriors on a Battlefield: A Grand Panorama of Formations and Military Might This hand-coloured copperplate engraving, titled 'Ancient Germanic Warriors on a Battlefield,' offers a vivid and intriguing glimpse into the past. The image, taken from Philipp Cluver's 'Germania Antiqua,' was meticulously crafted by the skilled hand of Nasi for Giulio Ferrario's 'Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World.' The scene unfolds on a sprawling battlefield, where the might of Ancient Germanic warriors is on full display. The cavalry charges forward in disciplined formations, their horses' hooves thundering on the ground. Behind them, ranks of infantry stand ready, shields raised, and spears at the ready. Wheeled vehicles laden with supplies and weapons add to the sense of a well-organized military force. A warrior at the left of the image stands out, his winged helmet, sword, shield, fur cape, and tunic marking him as a leader or a member of the squadron or life guards. His regal bearing and determined expression convey the importance of the occasion. The engraving, an aquatint, is a correct representation of Ancient Germanic military life. The warriors' uniforms, complete with cuirasses, bearskins, and weapons, are detailed and authentic. The hand-colouring adds depth and richness to the image, making it a fine example of the artistry and craftsmanship of the time. The scene is reminiscent of a state procession or a pomp and ceremony, perhaps marking a significant occasion such as a queen's coronation. The image was published on June 28, 1838, and was available for purchase at the Fores Sporting and Fine Art Gallery in Piccadilly, London. This engraving is a testament to the enduring fascination with the past and the desire to understand the lives of our ancestors.
