The Roman Consul Atilius Subdues the African Serpent - A Triumph of Courage and Strategy
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print, we witness a pivotal moment in ancient history as depicted by Jan Collaert. The scene portrays the legendary Roman Consul Atilius bravely facing off against the formidable African serpent, an embodiment of chaos and danger. Atilius stands at the forefront, his lance raised high with unwavering determination. Surrounding him are his loyal soldiers, their faces etched with both fear and resolve. Together, they form a united front against this monstrous creature that threatens their very existence. The serpent rears its massive head, venomous fangs bared menacingly. Its scaly body coils around an intricate war machine designed to launch deadly spikes towards its enemies. But even in the face of such overwhelming odds, Atilius remains steadfast. As arrows fly through the air and soldiers engage in fierce combat, it becomes clear that victory is not easily won. Yet Atilius' strategic brilliance shines through as he leads his army near River Bagrada – a symbol of life amidst this battle for survival. This hand-colored engraving captures not only the ferocity of this encounter but also highlights mankind's eternal struggle against nature's most fearsome creatures. It serves as a testament to human resilience and our ability to conquer even the most daunting challenges.
