The Emperor Severus leads his Army against the Northern Barbarians, c1860
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by artist John Leech, we are transported back to ancient Rome as we witness a pivotal moment in history. The scene depicts Emperor Severus at the forefront of his mighty army, bravely leading them into battle against the fearsome Northern Barbarians. The attention to detail is remarkable, with every element meticulously captured. The monochrome engraving adds a sense of gravitas and timelessness to the image. We can almost hear the thundering hooves of horses and feel the tension in the air as these two forces clash. Leech's artistic style combines historical accuracy with a touch of English humor and satire. Through his caricature-like portrayal, he infuses an element of comic relief into this intense moment from Roman history. This print is part of "The Comic History of England" series by Gilbert A. A Beckett, which aimed to entertain while educating readers about British history. It serves as a testament to how art can bring historical events alive and engage viewers on multiple levels. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded not only of the power struggles that shaped ancient Rome but also of our own fascination with history and its enduring relevance today.
