EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "ROMAN GLADIATORS. The Last Combat of the Gladiators" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Joseph Stallaert in 1878, this line engraving beautifully depicts an event that ultimately led to the banning of gladiatorial contests. In 404 A. D. , within the iconic Colosseum, we witness the courageous monk Telemachus attempting to separate two combatants locked in a fierce battle. With his cassock flowing behind him, Telemachus stands as a symbol of compassion and humanity amidst the brutality of ancient Roman entertainment. The image showcases not only the intense competition and arena atmosphere but also highlights the humanitarian efforts made during this time. As gladiators armed with tridents and knives clash before him, Telemachus fearlessly steps forward, determined to put an end to this violent spectacle. The historical significance is profound as Emperor Honorius would later issue an edict banning these deadly contests due to Telemachus' brave intervention. This marked a turning point for early Christianity's influence on Roman society and its commitment towards preserving life. Joseph Stallaert's masterful engraving captures every detail meticulously, from the aged bearded faces of old men watching intently from above to each gladiator's muscular physique ready for combat. Through this artwork, we are transported back in time - witnessing both bravery and tragedy unfold within one frame. It serves as a powerful reminder of our shared past while
