EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Gaulish war chariots at the historic Battle of Gergovia, captured in a late 19th-century protective sleeve for school books. The vibrant color lithograph by Letellier, E. transports us back to this significant moment in history when Mans Means of Transport on Air, Land and Water were put to use. The image depicts the awe-inspiring scene of faux war chariots charging into battle amidst a mountainous landscape. The warriors aboard these magnificent vehicles are ready for combat, exuding strength and determination as they face their adversaries. This artwork serves as a testament to the bravery and resilience of the Gauls during their struggle against Julius Caesar's forces. The composition is rich with detail, showcasing not only the impressive chariots but also elements such as castles, dwellings, and fortifications that add depth to the narrative. The text accompanying the image further enhances our understanding of this historical event. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but feel a sense of victory and glory emanating from it. It serves as a reminder of the fierce battles fought by Vercingetorix and his fellow Gauls in their quest for freedom. Overall, this artwork captures both the grandeur and intensity of ancient warfare while providing an educational glimpse into an important chapter in human history.
