This engraving, titled "Siege d Alesia" transports us back to the ancient battlefields of Gaul. Created by a French School artist in the 19th century, this print is a powerful illustration for Paul Lehugeur's "Histoire de France en Cent Tableaux". The scene depicts the historic Siege d Alesia, a significant confrontation between the Romans and Gauls. The intricate details of this engraving bring to life the intensity and drama of the siege.
