EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Plate 22: Civilis Separates German and Dutch Troops, a remarkable etching from the renowned series The War of the Romans Against the Batavians (Romanorvm et Batavorvm societas) by Antonio Tempesta. Created in 1611 during the 17th century, this ancient Roman artwork depicts an intense moment in history - the revolt of the Batavi. In this scene, Gaius Julius Civilis stands tall on a bridge, symbolically separating German and Dutch troops amidst a raging river. With his commanding presence and unwavering determination, Civilis embodies strength and leadership as he quells tensions between these warring factions. The horses ridden by soldiers add to the sense of urgency and motion within this historical tableau. Tempesta's masterful use of intricate details brings life to every element captured in this print. From the architectural structure of the bridge to each individual soldier clad in armor, every aspect is meticulously rendered with precision. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment that shaped ancient Rome's relationship with its neighboring territories. This artwork not only serves as a testament to Tempesta's artistic prowess but also reminds us of our shared human history filled with conflict and resilience.
