EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 18th century transports us back to ancient Rome, where gladiators engaged in fierce battles within the iconic Colosseum. The intricate illustration showcases the grandeur of Roman architecture, with the colossal amphitheater serving as a dramatic backdrop for this thrilling spectacle. The image captures a moment of intense action and excitement, as gladiators armed with swords and shields engage in combat. The crowd surrounding them is depicted in great detail, their faces filled with anticipation and awe. It's clear that this was not just a fight but also an elaborate form of entertainment for the spectators. Intriguingly, amidst all the chaos and danger, there are cages housing fearsome animals such as tigers and lions. These wild creatures add another layer of suspense to an already electrifying scene. One cannot help but wonder about their role in these gladiatorial contests - were they mere props or active participants? As we gaze upon this engraved masterpiece by Russelman, it serves as a reminder of both the brutality and fascination that characterized ancient Roman society. This print allows us to immerse ourselves in history while appreciating the skillful artistry behind its creation
