EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Death of Julian the Apostate, 1890" captures a pivotal moment in ancient Roman history. The creator of this powerful image remains unknown, but its significance is undeniable. Depicting the battle of Ctesiphon during the first century BC, it showcases Emperor Flavius Claudius Julianus, commonly known as Julian the Apostate. In this monochrome engraving, we witness a chaotic battlefield where armed forces clash in fierce combat. Positioned on horseback and surrounded by his soldiers, Julian stands tall as he leads his army into war against an unseen enemy. The intensity of the scene is heightened by the black and white aesthetic that adds a sense of drama and historical gravitas. This artwork originates from Edmund Ollier's book "Cassells Illustrated Universal History Vol. II - Rome" published in 1890 by Cassell and Company Ltd. Its inclusion within this comprehensive historical volume speaks to its importance as a visual representation of significant events that shaped ancient Rome. While we may not know who created this print or their intentions behind it, what remains clear is its ability to transport us back in time to witness a crucial moment in Roman history. This photograph serves as a testament to human resilience and sacrifice during times of warfare—a reminder that even great emperors like Julian were not exempt from death on the battlefield.
