EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration of Tertullian, the renowned early Christian author, captured in Andre Thevet's Des vrais pourtaits et vies des hommes illustres. Created by a French School artist in the 16th century, this engraving beautifully depicts Tertullian's half-length portrait. Intriguingly adorned with a turban, Tertullian stands as a symbol of African heritage and Carthaginian influence within the Roman Empire. His presence exudes wisdom and intellect as he holds a quill in one hand and delicately scrolls through ancient manuscripts with the other. Tertullian's impressive beard adds to his distinguished appearance, reflecting both his maturity and authority as a writer during this pivotal era in history. This image serves as a testament to his significant contributions to early Christianity. Preserved within a private collection, this remarkable artwork offers viewers an opportunity to delve into the life of Quintus Septimius Florens Tertullianus. As we gaze upon this evocative portrayal, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the brilliance and cultural diversity that characterized ancient Rome. With its rich historical context and artistic finesse, this print is not only visually striking but also provides us with valuable insights into one of Christianity's influential figures from centuries past.
