EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Cesar pret a traverser le Rubicon" transports us back to ancient times. The image depicts the iconic moment when Julius Caesar, mounted on his horse, stands at the edge of the Rubicon River in Italy. This historical event marked a turning point in Roman history as it symbolized Caesar's defiance of the Senate and his determination to seize power. The artist beautifully captures the tension and anticipation in this scene, with Caesar's steely gaze fixed ahead as he prepares to cross the river that would lead him into battle against his enemies. The detailed illustration showcases not only Caesar but also the picturesque landscape surrounding him, including mountains and a flowing river course. This engraving was originally created for Dictionnaire Populaire Illustre by Decembre-Alonnier around 1880. It is a testament to both artistic skill and historical significance. As we admire this print from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we are reminded of how art can transport us through time and allow us to witness pivotal moments in human history. Whether you are an admirer of ancient civilizations or simply appreciate fine art, this engraving serves as a powerful reminder of Julius Caesar's boldness and ambition that forever changed Europe during antiquity.
