EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an authentic autograph of the legendary Roman statesman and lawyer, Gaius Julius Caesar, dated 1558. Caesar (100 BC – 44 BC) is one of the most famous figures in world history, known for his military conquests, political maneuvering, and enduring influence on the Roman Republic. Born in Rome, Caesar rose to prominence as a military commander, leading the Roman army to victory against the Gauls in the late 50s BC. He then turned his attention to politics, becoming a powerful figure in the Roman Senate and holding various offices, including the position of Pontifex Maximus, the highest priest in the Roman religion. Caesar's most significant political move came in 49 BC when he crossed the Rubicon River with his army, initiating a civil war against his political enemies. After defeating his rivals, Caesar became the sole ruler of Rome, holding the titles of dictator and later, consul for life. During his reign, Caesar implemented numerous political and social reforms, including the Julian calendar, which is still in use today. He also sponsored the construction of many public works, such as temples, aqueducts, and theaters. Despite his many accomplishments, Caesar's rule was not without controversy. His autocratic rule and the growing power of his family, the Julii Caesares, led to unease among the Roman people and senators. In 44 BC, Caesar was assassinated by a group of senators, marking the end of the Roman Republic and the beginning of the Roman Empire. This rare print, bearing Caesar's autograph, offers a unique glimpse into the past and the hand of the man who shaped the course of Roman history. Dated 1558, it is a testament to the enduring fascination with the life and legacy of Julius Caesar.
