EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, depicting the Byzantine Emperor Zenon's return to Constantinople and his ruthless punishment of the usurper Flavius Basiliscus. In 477, Zenon had Basiliscus locked up with his entire family as retribution for his attempted power grab. The image showcases the dramatic scene of Basiliscus' demise, enclosed within a dry cistern to face death by exposure. The artist's pen drawing from "Historische Memorabilian des In-und Auslandes" by Anton Ziegler in 1840 brings this historical event to life with intricate detail and precision. The composition evokes a sense of tension and brutality as we witness the consequences of political ambition and betrayal. The expressions on the faces of both Zenon and Basiliscus reveal their contrasting emotions: one filled with triumph while the other succumbs to despair. Preserved in a private collection by Geiger, Peter Johann Nepomuck (1805-80), this print from Fine Art Finder allows us to delve into an intriguing chapter of ancient Roman history. It serves as a reminder that power struggles have always been part of human civilization, often resulting in tragic outcomes for those who dare challenge authority. Through this image, we are transported back in time, gaining insight into the complexities of politics and leadership during the Byzantine era. It is an invaluable piece that not only documents historical events but also sparks contemplation about our own contemporary world.
