EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking ancient Roman print, Lucius Papirius Cursor, a Roman consul and military commander, is depicted enjoying a triumphant procession through the streets of Rome after a hard-fought victory over the Samnites in 320 BC. The image captures the moment of jubilation and celebration, as the hero of the hour basks in the adulation of the Roman people. Despite the shameful nature of the attack that led to this victory, Papirius Cursor's triumph was a testament to his military prowess and determination. The Samnites, a formidable Italian enemy, had long been a thorn in Rome's side, and Papirius Cursor's victory marked a significant turning point in the Roman-Samnite Wars. The print shows Papirius Cursor seated in an ornate chariot, drawn by four white horses, and adorned with the traditional triumphal garlands and laurel wreaths. He wears the armor of a Roman soldier, complete with a helmet and shield, and holds a triumphal scepter in one hand and a victor's palm branch in the other. The triumphal procession is accompanied by musicians playing instruments and blowing trumpets, adding to the festive atmosphere. The crowd that lines the streets of Rome is shown cheering and waving palm branches, a symbol of victory and honor. Papirius Cursor's triumphal arch, adorned with the spoils of war, can be seen in the background. The image is a powerful reminder of the heroism and military might of ancient Rome and the triumphs that its soldiers achieved in the face of adversity. This print, from the extensive collection of historical images at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich history and culture of ancient Rome. It is a testament to the enduring power of art to capture and preserve the stories of the past.
