EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, depicting the Herules, a German tribe who served as mercenaries for the Roman soldiers. In 476, marking the end of the Roman Empire, this fierce tribe proclaimed their chief Odoacre as king of Italy. The image showcases an antique Liebig advertising sticker created by French School artists in the 19th century. The artwork beautifully portrays the coronation scene, with Odoacre adorned with a regal crown symbolizing his newfound power and authority. The chromolithography technique used to create this piece adds depth and vibrancy to every detail, making it truly mesmerizing. The juxtaposition of barbaric elements from Germanic culture against the backdrop of ancient Rome creates an intriguing visual narrative. It serves as a reminder that even within one empire's decline lies another's rise. This photograph is part of a private collection and was captured by Leonard de Selva. Its historical significance cannot be understated; it sheds light on how different cultures intertwined during pivotal moments in time. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are transported back to an era where empires clashed and new chapters were written. It stands as a testament to human resilience and adaptability amidst shifting powers—a timeless reminder that history is shaped not only by grand events but also by those who seize opportunities when they arise.
