Julius Caesar, (1902)
Julius Caesar, (1902). Portrait after a marble bust. Julius Caesar (c100-44 BC) was one of Romes most capable generals, as demonstrated by his conquest of Gaul in the 50s BC. After becoming embroiled in the civil strife that accompanied the disintegration of the Roman Republic, in 48 BC he crossed the River Rubicon, took Rome and effectively became the first citizen. His presumed desire to abandon the Republic as a form of government and return to monarchy led to his assassination in the Roman Senate in 44 BC. Illustration from The Worlds History, The Mediterranean Nations, by Dr H F Helmolt, Volume IV, published by William Heinemann, (London, 1902)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Julius Caesar, one of Rome's most influential figures. The portrait is based on a marble bust, showcasing his strong features and commanding presence. Julius Caesar was renowned for his military prowess, as demonstrated by his successful conquest of Gaul in the 50s BC. However, it was his involvement in the political turmoil that marked the decline of the Roman Republic that truly defined him. In 48 BC, he famously crossed the River Rubicon and seized control of Rome, effectively becoming its first citizen. The image hints at Caesar's controversial desire to abandon the Republican system and establish himself as a monarch. This ambition ultimately led to his tragic demise when he was assassinated in the Roman Senate in 44 BC. The engraving is taken from "The World's History: The Mediterranean Nations" by Dr H. F Helmolt, published in London in 1902. It serves as a powerful reminder of Caesar's leadership qualities and political acumen during a pivotal period in ancient history. This print offers us an intimate glimpse into the face of power - a testament to Julius Caesar's enduring legacy as both a brilliant general and statesman who forever shaped Rome's destiny.
