EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1796 takes us back to ancient Rome, showcasing a slinger in the Roman army. The skilled soldier is depicted wearing a galea helmet, cape, tunic, sagulum gregale (short trousers), and caligae hobnail sandals. Armed with a slingshot and stone, he stands ready for battle. The artist, L. F. Labrousse of Bordeaux, meticulously handcolored this copperplate engraving under the guidance of Jacques Grasset de Saint-Sauveur. It was featured in their work titled "L'antique Rome" which provided both historical and picturesque descriptions of Ancient Rome. This image offers us a glimpse into the military uniform and attire of Roman soldiers during that era. It highlights the attention to detail given to their clothing and weaponry as well as their social class within society. The engraving not only captures the essence of an individual soldier but also provides insight into the larger context of Roman society at that time. It reminds us of the importance placed on defense forces like infantry units within ancient civilizations. As we admire this piece from Private Collection through Fine Art Finder's collection by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to witness one aspect of life in ancient Rome – its formidable army and the brave men who served within it.
