AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
• Educational representation of the Roman triumph divided into horizontal registers, showing the procession as it passes through a triumphal arch.
• Carts and spoils: They carry the enemy weapons assembled as trophies (tropaea) and the gold and silver vessels seized from the conquered peoples.
• Elephants and animals: Inserted in the middle register to transport treasures and amaze the citizens with the exotic fauna of the conquered lands (e.g., Africa and the East).
• Prisoners, priests and soldiers: The soldiers parade with military insignia (signa), the enemy rulers in chains, and the priests who lead the white bulls destined for the final sacrifice on the Capitol.
The sheet presents wide margins beyond the copper plate impression
