EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Plate 17 Romans Misled Civilis Horse Believe" takes us back to a tumultuous era of war and deception. The image, captured by Artokoloro, showcases an intricate etching from the renowned series "Romanorvm et Batavorvm Societas" created in 1611. The scene depicted is one of chaos and tragedy. In the foreground, we witness Roman soldiers led astray by their commander, as they charge forward on horseback with unwavering belief in their cause. However, unbeknownst to them, this blind trust has led them into a deadly trap set by the cunning Batavians. Amidst the turmoil, we see fallen warriors scattered across the battlefield - some dead and others gravely injured. Their expressions reveal a mix of shock and despair as they come face-to-face with the harsh reality of war. Antonio Tempesta's masterful artistry shines through in this print. His attention to detail brings every element to life - from the intricate armor worn by both sides to the subtle nuances of emotion portrayed on each character's face. Through this powerful visual narrative, Artokoloro invites us to reflect upon themes such as betrayal, manipulation, and human vulnerability during times of conflict. It serves as a poignant reminder that even those who appear invincible can be misled and fall victim to their own misplaced beliefs. This remarkable piece stands as a testament to both artistic skill and historical significance – capturing a pivotal moment
