EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, depicting Lucius Annaeus Seneca (The Younger), a renowned Roman Stoic philosopher from the 1st century. The image dates back to 1493 and is part of Hartmann Schedel's Liber Chronicarum Mundi, also known as the Nuremberg Chronicle. In this haunting scene, Seneca can be seen taking his own life by committing suicide in his bath. It is believed that he took this drastic step after antagonizing Nero, the Roman emperor at the time. The photograph conveys a sense of tragedy and melancholy as it immortalizes this fateful event. Seneca was an influential figure in philosophy and his stoic teachings continue to resonate today. His death marked not only the end of his own life but also symbolized the decline of an era characterized by intellectual pursuits and philosophical enlightenment. The monochrome composition adds depth to the image, emphasizing its historical significance. This print serves as a reminder of Seneca's contributions to philosophy while shedding light on the complexities of human nature and our struggle for meaning in life. Captured with great detail by Hartmannus Schedel, this print offers viewers a glimpse into ancient Rome during the 15th century. It stands as a testament to both Seneca's enduring legacy and Schedel's skillful craftsmanship in documenting important moments throughout history.
