EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a haunting scene from ancient Gaulish history. Depicted is a human sacrifice conducted by a Gaulish Druid, as illustrated in "Histoire de France" by Anquetil in the 19th century. The unknown artist skillfully brings this moment to life with intricate details and vivid colors. The image transports us back to an era of mysticism and ancient rituals. The Gaulish Druid stands tall, adorned in traditional robes, his face hidden beneath a hooded cloak. With outstretched arms, he performs the solemn act of sacrifice while surrounded by onlookers. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation and reverence as the crowd watches in awe and trepidation. The engraving beautifully captures their expressions - some filled with fear, others with curiosity or perhaps even acceptance of this sacred ceremony. This artwork serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that existed within Gaul during antiquity. It sheds light on the beliefs and practices of its people, particularly those associated with Celtic traditions. Stefano Bianchetti's masterful recreation ensures that this historical moment remains preserved for generations to come. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness an enigmatic ritual that was once central to Gaulish society – a testament to our shared human history and the mysteries it still holds today.
