EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 18th century depicts a powerful and enigmatic figure - Odoacre, leader of the Herules allied to the Huns and minister of Attila. The artist remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to this portrait that has survived through time. Odoacre's commanding presence is evident in his regal attire and stern expression. His gaze pierces through the ages, revealing a man who was both feared and respected during his reign in the 5th century. As one of Attila's trusted ministers, he played a crucial role in shaping history. The intricate details captured by the skilled engraver bring forth a sense of authenticity to this historical artifact. Every line etched on Odoacre's face tells a story - tales of battles fought, alliances forged, and kingdoms conquered. This print serves as a window into an era long gone - the Middle Ages or "medium age" as it was referred to at that time. It reminds us of our connection to our ancestors and their struggles for power and survival. Displayed proudly in private collections around the world, this artwork stands as a testament to human resilience and ambition throughout history. Its significance lies not only in its artistic value but also in its ability to transport us back in time, allowing us to witness firsthand the faces behind legends like Odoacre.
