EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Roman phalerae" showcases the intricate military decorations worn by Roman soldiers during parades. Created by the French School in the 19th century, this print offers a glimpse into ancient Rome's rich history and military traditions. The image depicts an array of medals, discs, and awards known as phalerae adorning a soldier's breastplate. These ornate decorations were bestowed upon deserving troops to honor their bravery and achievements on the battlefield. Each phalera represented a distinction or prize earned through valorous acts in combat. The artist has skillfully captured every detail of these remarkable pieces, allowing us to appreciate their craftsmanship and significance within Roman society. The engravings on each medal tell stories of heroic deeds performed by those who proudly wore them. As we admire this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness the grandeur of Roman parades where soldiers showcased their decorated breastplates with pride. This visual representation from Ernest Bosc's Dictionnaire de l'art serves as a testament to the Romans' deep appreciation for military excellence and their desire to reward those who served with distinction. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can now bring home this piece of history and marvel at these ancient symbols of honor and valor forevermore.
