EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a pivotal moment in ancient Roman history - the condemnation of Marcus Manlius Capitolinus to death in 385 BC. Despite being a beloved hero among the plebeians, Marcus Manlius found himself at odds with the patrician class, who ultimately sentenced him to his demise. The image exudes tension and drama as we witness the popular leader facing judgment from those who once revered him. The contrast between Marcus Manlius' status as a champion of the people and his fate at the hands of the ruling elite is palpable in this haunting depiction. As we gaze upon this historical scene, we are reminded of the complex power dynamics that have shaped societies throughout time. The struggle between classes, ideologies, and individuals plays out before our eyes in this arresting visual narrative. Marcus Manlius Capitolinus may have met a tragic end, but his legacy lives on through this evocative photo print. It serves as a poignant reminder of the fragility of power and the enduring impact of one man's defiance against injustice. In capturing this momentous event with such skill and detail, Rights Managed has brought an ancient tale to life for modern audiences to ponder and reflect upon.
