EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history as Jules Cesar and his legions boldly cross the river of Rubicon on January 10,49 BC. Following in the footsteps of Pompee the Great, Cesar defies the law of the Roman Senate that prohibited generals from crossing this border river into Italy. With his armies armed and ready for battle, Cesar utters the famous phrase "Alea jacta est" - meaning "the die has been cast". Illustrated by Tancredi Scarpelli, this artwork beautifully depicts this significant event from ancient Rome's past. The tension is palpable as Cesar takes this daring step towards Rome to assert his power and challenge authority. The image transports us back to a time when political ambition clashed with established norms. It serves as a reminder of how individuals throughout history have pushed boundaries and taken risks to achieve their goals. Paolo Giudici's "Storia d Italia" provides historical context for this powerful illustration, allowing viewers to delve deeper into the complexities of Roman politics during that era. Preserved in private collection by Bridgeman Images' Holbarn Archive, this photograph offers an opportunity to reflect on moments that shaped civilizations and altered destinies. It invites us to ponder upon our own choices and decisions that may carry profound consequences. As we gaze at Jules Cesar leading his legions across Rubicon's waters, we are reminded that sometimes it is necessary to defy conventions in order to leave an indelible mark on history.
