EDITORS COMMENTS
In this lithograph titled "Scipio's Appeal to the People" we are transported back to ancient Rome, where a scandalous scene unfolds before our eyes. The image depicts Scipio Africanus, a renowned Roman general and statesman of the Second Punic War, making an impassioned plea to the crowd gathered at the Capitol. The composition is teeming with onlookers who have been drawn by both curiosity and whispers of bribery. As Scipio delivers his oration, it becomes evident that corruption has seeped into the heart of Roman society. The artist skillfully captures the tension in the air as spectators eagerly await their turn to be swayed by his words or perhaps even enticed by bribes. Scattered throughout the crowd are supporters of Scipio, fervently nodding their heads in agreement with every word he utters. Their presence hints at his popularity among certain factions within Rome. This print from the 19th century offers us a glimpse into an era when public speeches held immense power and influence over people's opinions and actions. It serves as a reminder that even in ancient times, political maneuvering and questionable tactics were not uncommon. As we observe this historical moment frozen in time through Bridgeman Images' meticulous engraving technique, we cannot help but ponder how such scenes continue to resonate with our modern understanding of politics and human nature.
