EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Roman Trooper treading a German under his Horses Feet" transports us back to ancient Rome, depicting a powerful moment in history. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases the clash between Roman and Germanic cultures. The scene captures a Roman trooper on horseback triumphantly trampling over a fallen German warrior. The intensity of the encounter is palpable as the trooper's steed forcefully crushes its enemy beneath its hooves. This image serves as a reminder of Rome's military might and dominance during its expansion into northern Germany. With meticulous attention to detail, the engraving highlights both the strength and brutality of ancient warfare. It offers insight into the complex dynamics between conquerors and conquered, shedding light on how these interactions shaped European history. Originally featured in Victor Duruy's "History of Rome" this digitally cleaned image allows us to appreciate every intricate line and shading technique employed by the artist.
