EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph transports us back to the ancient city of Carthage during the intense siege of 146 BC. The image depicts a pivotal moment as Roman soldiers triumphantly enter the fallen city, their armor gleaming in the sunlight. The artist, Richard Henry Brock, skillfully captures the drama and tension of this historical event. Every detail is meticulously rendered, from the intricate design of their weapons to the determined expressions on their faces. It is evident that these soldiers have endured a long and arduous battle. The composition itself is strikingly powerful, with rows upon rows of disciplined Roman troops marching forward in perfect unison. Their conquest over Carthage symbolizes not only military victory but also Rome's dominance over its rival civilization. This lithograph was originally published in George Newnes Limited's "Newnes Pictorial Knowledge" around 1950, offering readers an immersive visual experience into ancient history. Today, it serves as a reminder of humanity's relentless pursuit for power and conquest throughout time. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported to an era long gone but not forgotten – a testament to both human resilience and our fascination with capturing moments frozen in time through art.
