Caesar in de tempel van Saturnus 1800

"Caesar in de tempel van Saturnus" is an 1800 engraving by Ludwig Gottlieb Portman, depicting a dramatic scene from Roman history. The print shows Caesar, in the temple of Saturn, surrounded by a crowd of men. Caesar, recognizable by his laurel wreath and Roman armor, is being escorted out of the temple by a group of men. The scene, full of tension and urgency, showcases Portman's mastery of detail and ability to capture the emotions of his subjects, portraying the moment when Julius Caesar was assassinated in 44 BC. The print, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the enduring power of history and art.
