EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print depicts the pivotal moment in the First Punic War, when the Roman senator Appius Claudius Caudex gave the green light for an unjustified attack on the Carthaginian colony in Sicily. The year was 264 BC, and the simmering tensions between Rome and Carthage were about to boil over into full-blown war. The scene unfolds on the sun-drenched shores of Sicily, where Roman legionaries, armed with shields and swords, charge towards the Carthaginian forces, who are shown huddled together, ready to defend their land. The air is thick with the scent of sweat, blood, and the acrid smoke of burning campfires. The cacophony of war drums, trumpets, and the cries of soldiers fill the air, as the two sides clash in a brutal and violent battle. Appius Claudius Caudex, depicted in the print as a stern and resolute figure, stands at the head of the Roman army, his eyes fixed on the enemy. His decision to attack the Carthaginian colony in Sicily, without provocation, was a calculated move aimed at expanding Roman territory and power. But it was also a dangerous gambit, as Carthage was a formidable military power, with a well-trained army and a formidable navy. The First Punic War would last for over two decades, and would see some of the most brutal and hard-fought battles in ancient history. It would ultimately end with a Roman victory, but at a great cost to both sides. This print serves as a powerful reminder of the dangers and consequences of unjustified aggression and the cost of war.
