Vercingetorix imprisoned in the Tullianum in Rome, c52-46 BC (1882-1884). The Gallic chieftain Vercingetorix was chosen as king by the Arverni, a powerful tribe that occupied what is now the Auvergne. In 52 BC he led the Arverni against Roman rule but was ultimately defeated and captured by Julius Caesar at Alesia (near Dijon). Vercingetorix was then taken to Rome, where, after five years imprisonment, he was humiliated by being paraded as evidence of Romes greatness, and was then put to death.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, depicting Vercingetorix, the Gallic chieftain, imprisoned in the Tullianum in Rome between 52-46 BC. Chosen as king by the powerful Arverni tribe of present-day Auvergne, Vercingetorix led his people against Roman rule but was ultimately defeated by Julius Caesar at Alesia near Dijon. After his defeat, Vercingetorix was taken to Rome where he endured five years of imprisonment. This image showcases the aftermath of his capture and highlights the humiliation he faced as evidence of Rome's supremacy. Chained and confined within this ancient prison cell, Vercingetorix serves as a symbol of rebellion quelled and power subjugated. The print not only portrays an important historical event but also reflects upon themes such as captivity, leadership, and resistance. It offers a glimpse into the clash between two mighty civilizations – Gaulish warriors fighting for their freedom against Roman soldiers enforcing their dominion. Through its monochromatic tones and intricate engravings, this print from "La France et les Francais a Travers les Siecles" evokes a sense of solemnity while capturing the essence of this pivotal moment in time. As we observe this image today, it serves as a reminder that even great leaders can be brought down by forces beyond their control - an enduring testament to both human strength and vulnerability.
