EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a Gallic soldier in the midst of sounding the horn of war, known as a carnyx. The image is taken from the illustrious teaching cahiers, "War Costumes of the Bronze Age and the Gaulish Age" edited by Eugene Grasset. The soldier stands tall and proud, adorned in his intricate warrior costume that reflects both strength and elegance. His fierce gaze reveals determination and readiness for battle. In his hands, he holds the carnyx, an ancient musical instrument used to rally troops on the battlefield. The composition exudes a sense of power and intensity as we witness this moment frozen in time. The French photographer Leonard de Selva skillfully captures every detail with precision, allowing us to appreciate not only the craftsmanship of the soldier's attire but also his dedication to his role as protector. This photograph serves as a reminder of France's rich history during ancient times when Celtic tribes roamed its lands. It offers us a glimpse into their culture and warfare techniques while showcasing their artistic expression through music. As we admire this remarkable piece from our private collection, let us reflect on how art can transport us back in time, immersing us in different eras and cultures. Through images like these, we gain insight into humanity's past struggles and triumphs while appreciating their enduring legacy.
