EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical moment from Roman antiquity - the Second Punic War. Specifically, it depicts the dramatic passage of the Alps in 218 BC by Carthaginian General Hannibal Barca. Illustrated by Tancredi Scarpelli, this artwork beautifully captures the intensity and grandeur of Hannibal's daring journey. As we delve into history, we are transported to a time when Carthage and Rome clashed in an epic struggle for dominance. In this image, we witness Hannibal leading his troops through treacherous mountain terrain as they traverse the formidable Alps. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, bringing to life not only the rugged landscape but also the determination etched on Hannibal's face. Amongst all these elements lies one particularly striking feature - an elephant named Isadora. This majestic creature symbolizes both power and resilience, serving as a testament to Hannibal's audacious military tactics. Through vibrant colors and meticulous shading, Scarpelli masterfully conveys the essence of this historic event. As viewers gaze upon this illustration taken from Paolo Giudici's "Storia d Italia" (History of Italy), they are reminded of humanity's enduring fascination with ancient battles and conquests. In collaboration with Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, this print allows us to appreciate not only artistry but also our shared heritage. It serves as a visual reminder that history continues to shape our present-day world while inspiring curiosity about those who came before us.
