EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Imperator" takes us back to ancient Rome, where the victorious Roman general is being saluted by his soldiers in the field. The image beautifully captures a moment of triumph and camaraderie among warriors who have fought side by side. Originally, the title of Imperator was bestowed upon successful Roman generals like the one depicted here. However, as time went on, this prestigious designation became reserved exclusively for Emperors. This illustration from 1928 vividly brings to life an important aspect of Roman military history. The artist behind this masterpiece is Amedee Forestier (1854-1930), whose talent shines through in every brushstroke. Forestier's attention to detail is evident in the meticulously crafted battle scenes, intricate armor, and authentic costumes worn by these brave soldiers. As we gaze at this print, we are transported into a world filled with conflict and valor. It serves as a reminder of the immense power and influence that Rome once held over its vast empire. From Italy to Britain, Germany to France, their legacy echoes through time. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images not only showcases historical significance but also highlights the artistry involved in capturing such moments on canvas or lithograph paper. It invites us to delve deeper into our shared human history and appreciate those who have come before us on their quest for victory and glory.
