EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print captures a lively scene from ancient history. In the heart of Alsace, a Roman legion patrol finds respite outside a charming Gaulish inn. The colour litho by Jean-Jacques Waltz, also known as Hansi, brings to life the humorous interactions between these historical figures. Amidst the backdrop of conquered Gaul, we witness soldiers indulging in wine and merriment while serving their duties. A contented atmosphere permeates the air as laughter fills the inn. This image beautifully portrays both the occupation and coexistence of two distinct cultures - that of the powerful Roman Empire and the resilient Gauls. The flirtatious exchange between a French girl and one of Rome's finest adds an amusing touch to this snapshot in time. It is through such small moments that we glimpse into everyday life during this era. As we delve into history through this artwork, it becomes evident how Alsace played a significant role in shaping European civilization. The region's rich heritage is intertwined with both French culture and its place within modern-day Europe. With every glance at this print, one can't help but feel captivated by its vivid colors and intricate details. It serves as a reminder that even amidst conquests and occupations, there were moments of joy, camaraderie, and contentment for those living under different empires' rule.
