EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Cicero Denouncing Catiline" transports us back to ancient Rome, immersing us in a pivotal moment of political drama. Created by B. Barloccini in 1849, this print captures the intensity and power of one of history's most renowned orators. The central figure depicted is Marcus Tullius Cicero, an influential statesman and philosopher known for his eloquence and wit. Standing before a grand columned backdrop, he delivers a passionate speech denouncing Lucius Sergius Catilina, a notorious senator involved in conspiracy against the Roman Republic. With meticulous detail and skillful technique, Barloccini brings this historical event to life on paper. The expressions on the faces of both Cicero and Catilina reveal their conflicting emotions - determination versus defiance - as they engage in this fierce battle of words. The composition exudes an air of authority and gravitas befitting such significant figures from antiquity. Every line etched into the print conveys the weightiness of their roles within Roman politics. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from our private collection today, we are reminded not only of the timeless allure of classical civilization but also how political intrigue has always been an integral part of human society. This engraving serves as a testament to the enduring impact that great oratory can have on shaping history itself.
