EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Heroism of the Carthaginian women" depicts a powerful scene from ancient history. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases the bravery and courage of Carthaginian women during a time of conflict. The image is part of Maria Elizabeth Budden's book, True Stories from Ancient History. In this illustration, we see a group of female soldiers standing proudly in their armor and helmets. They are surrounded by male soldiers, forming a united front against their enemies. The attention to detail in the plate armor and mesh sizes highlights the authenticity of this depiction. The setting takes us back to Carthage, located in modern-day Tunisia, North Africa. This ancient civilization was known for its military prowess and strategic warfare tactics. The strong presence of African culture is evident through the portrayal of African soldiers fighting alongside their Carthaginian counterparts. The composition captures a moment where these brave women are seen drinking together before battle - symbolizing camaraderie and shared determination. Their unwavering spirit serves as an inspiration for all who view this artwork. This remarkable print reminds us that heroism knows no gender boundaries; it transcends time and place.
