In this captivating collection of illustrations and engravings, the mighty Roman Centurion takes center stage. From ancient frescoes to biblical depictions, these artworks offer a glimpse into the life and valor of this legendary warrior. One engraving portrays a Roman Centurion captured by British Warriors, showcasing the clash between two formidable forces. Another illustration from biblical times depicts the Centurion's presence during The Road to Calvary, his stoic figure standing witness to Christ's journey. The Capture of Christ panel on the Baptistery doors showcases yet another moment where the Centurion plays a significant role in history. His unwavering loyalty is evident as he stands amidst the chaos surrounding Jesus' arrest. An episode in the life of Jesus Christ comes alive through a vibrant chromolithograph, with a Roman Centurion depicted alongside other soldiers. Their disciplined ranks demonstrate their strength and power on behalf of Rome. Cornelis van Poelenburch's artwork presents Christ Carrying the Cross, where we see an early 1620s interpretation featuring our esteemed Centurion among those who bear witness to this pivotal event. Illustrations further reveal different aspects of military hierarchy; one displays three ranks: Centurion, Legate on horseback, and Standard Bearer - each representing various levels within Rome's army structure. Not limited to male warriors alone, there is also an intriguing depiction of a female Roman warrior holding shield and spear. This portrayal challenges traditional gender roles while highlighting women's contributions in ancient warfare. Lastly, we encounter an enchanting black-and-white illustration depicting Mars -the Roman God associated with war- holding spiculum (a type of javelin). This image serves as a reminder that even deities revered for their martial prowess recognize the mightiness embodied by our brave centurions. Through these diverse artistic representations spanning centuries, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand glimpses into both historical and mythical realms.
