EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Plate 30: Cerialis Driving the Dutch into the Rhine, a remarkable depiction from The War of the Romans Against the Batavians (Romanorvm et Batavorvm societas), created in 1611 by Antonio Tempesta. This ancient Roman artwork takes us back to the 17th century, immersing us in the tumultuous events of ancient Rome. In this scene, we witness Quintus Petillius Cerialis leading his troops as they fiercely battle against the rebellious Batavi people. Mounted on powerful horses, Cerialis and his fellow horsemen charge forward with determination, driving their opponents towards the mighty River Rhine. The intensity of their fight is palpable as swords clash and shields collide. Antonio Tempesta's masterful etching skillfully captures both the geographical features and historical significance of this momentous event. With meticulous attention to detail, he portrays not only human figures but also various animals that add depth to this vivid tableau. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print serves as a testament to Italy's rich artistic heritage. It transports viewers back in time while reminding us of humanity's enduring fascination with history and its ability to shape our present-day world.
