EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Plate 36 Civilis Cerialis Meet Broken Bridge" transports viewers to a pivotal moment in history. The image, captured by the talented artist Antonio Tempesta, showcases an intense encounter between two powerful forces - the Romans and the Batavians. Set against the backdrop of a broken bridge, symbolizing both physical and metaphorical barriers, this artwork depicts a crucial meeting between Civilis Cerialis and his Roman counterparts. The tension is palpable as these opposing factions come face to face, their expressions revealing conflicting emotions of determination and uncertainty. The scene beautifully captures the essence of war and diplomacy intertwined. It represents not only a clash of cultures but also an opportunity for reconciliation as they strive to reach an accord amidst turmoil. Through intricate etching techniques, Tempesta skillfully brings this historical event to life with remarkable attention to detail. Originally published in 1611 as part of the renowned series "Romanorvm et Batavorvm Societas" this first state issue holds immense historical significance. Created after Otto van Veen's original work, it pays homage to both Italian and Netherlandish artistic traditions. Measuring at 6 1/2 by 8 1/8 inches on Bartsch sheet paper, this print from the Liszt Collection serves as a testament to human resilience during times of conflict. Its presence evokes curiosity about our shared past while reminding us that even broken bridges can be mended through dialogue and understanding.
