The Sarmatians were a fierce group of German warriors known for their exceptional archery skills and impressive armor. This stunning gold and turquoise bracelet from the 2nd century BC showcases the intricate craftsmanship that was characteristic art. Depicted in black and white photos, we see scenes from the column of Marcus Aurelius, where Sarmatian archers are shown in action. In one image, titled "Miraculous Rain, " we witness the power of these skilled warriors as they rain arrows upon their enemies. Another photo captures the chaos of war as Emperor Marcus Aurelius arrives at a village under attack. The bravery and resilience of the Sarmatians is evident as they fight alongside him to defend their land. In an engraving titled "Arrival of the Black Watch, " we see crew members aboard the ship "Victory" cheering on a fellow warrior named "Sarmatian. " This highlights how respected and feared these warriors were by both allies and foes alike. A cast detail shows us another significant moment in history - when the Sarmatians paid tribute to the Romans during Trajan's reign. Their submission demonstrates not only their military prowess but also their strategic thinking. On display at Villa d'Este in Tivoli, Paris, an engraving depicts a scene from Trajan's column where a Sarmatian soldier stands tall amidst Roman architecture. This artwork serves as a reminder of their influence even beyond battlefields. Naval events are also depicted through engravings showcasing various aspects such as construction during campaigns against the Sarmatians or notes taken aboard ships like "Sarmatian" during voyages across oceans. Lastly, there is an engraving capturing incidents during Princess Louise's voyage across Atlantic on board "Sarmatian. " These moments highlight how this mighty vessel played a role not just in warfare but also in diplomatic missions.
