EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Plate 20 Civilis Having Hair Cut War Romans Batavians" is a remarkable piece of art that captures a significant moment in history. Created by Antonio Tempesta, an Italian artist from Florence, in collaboration with Otto van Veen, a Netherlandish painter from Leiden, this etching showcases their exceptional talent. The image depicts the intense atmosphere of war between the Romans and the Batavians during ancient times. The central focus of the artwork is on Civilis, who can be seen having his hair cut amidst the chaos of battle. This scene symbolizes both vulnerability and determination as Civilis prepares himself for combat. Tempesta's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this print. The intricate lines and shading bring life to each character portrayed – from the fierce Roman soldiers to the resilient Batavian warriors. The composition perfectly balances action and emotion, creating a visual narrative that captivates viewers. Dating back to 1611, this first state issue print holds historical significance and offers us a glimpse into an era long gone. Its sizeable dimensions make it even more impressive; measuring at approximately 6 5/16 x 8 1/8 inches (16 x 20.6 cm), it demands attention wherever it is displayed. As part of the Liszt Collection, this extraordinary artwork serves as a testament to human creativity throughout centuries. It reminds us of our shared past and invites contemplation about how history continues to
