EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Horace Cocles Roman Heroes series showcases the legendary hero, Horace Cocles, in all his glory. Standing at full length, he exudes strength and determination with a raised sword in his right hand and a shield firmly grasped in his left. The background depicts an awe-inspiring scene as he fearlessly confronts an entire army on the banks of the mighty Tiber River. The focal point of this artwork is undoubtedly Horace Cocles' heroic act at the Pons Sublicius. With unparalleled bravery, he single-handedly holds off the Etruscans while behind him, Romans work tirelessly to break down the bridge. In a daring escape maneuver, our valiant hero leaps into the depths of the Tiber to ensure his survival. This exquisite engraving was created by Keijzer and bears his signature as a testament to his artistic skill. Produced in Amsterdam during August 1829, it is printed on high-quality paper measuring 387 mm in height and 281 mm in width. As part of Liszt Collection's Roman Heroes series title featuring Horace Cocles as its central figure, this print captures not only an iconic moment but also pays homage to one of Rome's most revered heroes
