EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a legionary emblem found at Benwell Roman Fort, along Hadrian's Wall. The illustration, skillfully crafted by Frank J H Gardiner between 1985 and 1989, depicts a carved plaque that once proudly displayed the symbol of the Second Legion Augusta. At its center stands a vexillum, a flag-like military standard that represented unity and strength within the legion. To either side of the vexillum are two majestic creatures - on the left, a powerful Capricorn with its distinctive half-goat, half-fish form; on the right, an elegant Pegasus with wings spread wide in flight. These mythical beings symbolize different aspects of power and agility associated with this renowned Roman legion. The attention to detail in this artwork is truly remarkable. Every line etched into stone tells a story of dedication and craftsmanship from centuries past. As we admire this graphic representation today, we can't help but be transported back to ancient times when legions marched along Hadrian's Wall. Frank Gardiner's talent shines through in his ability to bring history to life through art. This print serves as both an educational tool for those interested in Roman history and as a beautiful piece of decor for any enthusiast or collector. It reminds us of our rich heritage and invites us to delve deeper into the fascinating world of ancient Rome
