This engraving takes us back in time to ancient Rome, showcasing the Consul and his lictors in all their grandeur. The image is a print from "Usi e Costumi di Tutti i Popoli dell Universo" a comprehensive historical account of various nations' governments, laws, military practices, and religions. Created by an unknown artist in the 19th century, this particular piece captures the essence of Roman political and military power. The Consul stands tall at the center of the composition, adorned with a regal crown atop his head. His commanding presence is further emphasized by his majestic helmet and intricately designed costume. Flanking him are his lictors, armed with axes symbolizing their authority over life and death. The engraving beautifully depicts elements such as justice and order through its inclusion of a crown made out of leaves - an emblematic representation of victory intertwined with natural harmony. The arm extended towards them suggests that they hold immense responsibility for maintaining peace within society. Every detail in this artwork speaks volumes about ancient Rome's rich history: from the meticulously recreated attire to the stoic expressions on each figure's face. It serves as both a visual feast for art enthusiasts and an educational tool for those interested in exploring antiquity. Stefano Bianchetti has skillfully preserved this historical gem through his restoration work on this private collection piece. As we gaze upon it today, we can't help but marvel at how it transports us to another era - one
