EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white etching, titled "Plate 3: Emperor Tiberius on Horseback" is a captivating portrayal of the ancient Roman emperor. Created by Antonio Tempesta in 1596 as part of the series "The First Twelve Roman Caesars" this artwork showcases his exceptional talent for capturing historical figures. In this print, Emperor Tiberius is depicted majestically riding a horse, exuding power and authority. The intricate details bring the scene to life - from the elaborate armor adorning both man and beast to the meticulous rendering of their facial expressions. It is evident that Tempesta's skillful technique has been masterfully employed here. The artist's choice to present Tiberius on horseback symbolizes his military prowess and leadership qualities. As one of Rome's most influential emperors, Tiberius played a significant role in shaping ancient history. This portrait captures his commanding presence while also providing insight into the fashion and style prevalent during that era.
