EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic moment of the abduction of Thusnelda, wife of Arminius, the warlord of the Germanic tribe of the Cherusci. The powerful chieftain is depicted on horseback, fiercely taking his beloved wife away from danger. The intensity and emotion in their faces tell a story of love, bravery, and sacrifice in a time of conflict and turmoil.
Arminius (also known as Armenius) was a legendary figure who led his people to victory against the Roman Empire in 9 AD at the Battle of Teutoburg Forest. His cunning tactics and knowledge of both Roman and Germanic warfare made him a formidable leader. Thusnelda stood by his side through it all, showing her strength and loyalty as they faced countless challenges together.
The engraving by Johannes Scherr from "Germania" in 1880 beautifully captures this historical event with intricate detail and skillful artistry. The composition draws you into the scene, making you feel like you are witnessing this pivotal moment firsthand.
This print serves as a reminder of the courage and resilience displayed by Arminius and Thusnelda during a tumultuous period in history. It is a testament to their enduring love amidst chaos and conflict, immortalized for generations to come.
