EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this fascinating print capturing a truly unique moment in history - the Roman emperor Caligula and his beloved horse, Incitatus. Known for his eccentricities and controversial reign, Caligula shocked people by treating his horse as an equal, even going so far as to share meals at the table with him. In fact, it is said that he would have made Incitatus a consul if only the animal had lived longer.
This image not only provides a glimpse into the bizarre world of ancient Rome but also raises questions about power, privilege, and the relationships between humans and animals. How did people react to seeing their ruler treat a horse like royalty? What does this say about Caligula's character and leadership style?
As you study this print from Mary Evans Picture Library, take a moment to consider the complexities of history and how seemingly small details - like sharing toast with a horse - can reveal larger truths about society. Let yourself be transported back to 41 AD when Caligula ruled over Rome with both grandeur and controversy, leaving behind a legacy that continues to intrigue us today.
