EDITORS COMMENTS
The History of Hannibal, c. 1570 (tapestry) is a remarkable piece of Flemish art that depicts the ancient rivalry between Carthage and Rome. This particular print captures a significant moment in history - Hannibal's Oath. In this scene, we witness the sacrifice and oath-taking ceremony against the Romans. The tapestry showcases intricate details, with offerings of fruits prominently displayed. The use of wool and silk in its creation adds to its luxurious appeal. Measuring an impressive 349 x 335 cm, it is one of the first cloths preserved in the series. Originating from Brussels manufacture during the Renaissance period, this masterpiece now finds its home at Zamora Cathedral Museum in Spain's Castile and Leon region. The image transports us back to ancient times when Hannibal led his armies across treacherous terrains like the Alps to challenge Roman dominance. It serves as a visual reminder of Africa's rich history and cultural heritage. This Flemish-style artwork not only reflects artistic excellence but also highlights historical events that shaped our world today. Its vibrant colors and attention to detail make it a captivating addition to any collection or exhibition. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this iconic tapestry through their lens, preserving its essence for generations to come.
