EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the colossal statue of Vercingetorix, a renowned Gallic leader from 72-46 BC. The sculpture, created by Millet Aime in 1865, stands an impressive 6.60 meters tall and is situated on the western part of Mont Auxois in Alise-Sainte-Reine, Cote d'Or, France. The photograph beautifully captures the grandeur and intricacy of this historical masterpiece. The immense size of the statue is emphasized by its imposing presence against the backdrop of a clear sky. Its detailed craftsmanship reflects the skill and artistry of Millet Aime. The base supporting this magnificent sculpture measures 7 meters high and was designed by Viollet Le Duc. This additional architectural element adds to the overall impact and significance of the artwork. The image transports us back to 1865 when this awe-inspiring monument was first erected as a tribute to Vercingetorix's leadership during Gaulish times. It serves as a reminder of France's rich history and cultural heritage. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also invites viewers to appreciate both the artistic talent behind its creation and the historical importance it represents.
