This anonymous drawing from the 1590s-1600s depicts the triumphal entry of a Roman general. The general is seated in a chariot, pulled by two horses. The drawing is executed in pen and brown ink, with a delicate linework. The scene is set against a simple background, allowing the artist to focus on the figures. The detail of the horses, the charioteer, and the general's elaborate attire are characteristic of the Renaissance interest in classical antiquity. The drawing is a testament to the ongoing artistic fascination with Roman history and its grandeur.
