EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored woodcut captures a pivotal moment in history - the Germanic invasion halted at Fiesole in 406 AD. In this dramatic illustration, we witness the confrontation between Roman general Flavius Stilicho and Radagaisus, the formidable leader of the Ostrogoths. The scene is set against the backdrop of Italy, with its rich heritage and traditional fortifications. The artwork beautifully depicts the clash between two mighty forces as they vie for control over Europe. The Roman army stands resolute, their winged helmets symbolizing their strength and determination to protect their empire. On the other side, Radagaisus leads his tribe of Ostrogoths into battle, representing the relentless barbarian invaders seeking to conquer Rome. This print transports us back to ancient times when classical civilization was on a precipice. It reminds us of Rome's military might and resilience as it faced numerous threats from various Germanic tribes such as Vandals and Suevi. As we gaze upon this historic image, we are reminded that history is not just a collection of dates but rather a tapestry woven by countless battles fought by brave warriors like Flavius Stilicho. This artwork serves as an important reminder of our past struggles and victories that have shaped our present world.
