Galliërs trekken zich terug tijdens een veldslag met de Romeinen 1574

This 1574 woodcut by an anonymous artist depicts a scene from the Gallic Wars, a series of conflicts between the Roman Republic and Gallic tribes. It is likely a scene from the battle of Alesia, where Julius Caesar's Roman forces defeated Vercingetorix and his Gaulish allies in 52 BC. The detail shows a fallen Gaulish warrior, presumably defeated by the Roman forces. The overall composition, including the ornate frame, is characteristic of the Northern Renaissance style and the woodcut's small size makes it likely a private print intended for private collectors.
