The Triumph of Julius Caesar: Caesar Triumphant

Andrea Andreani

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a sepia-toned etching of a triumphant scene. Julius Caesar sits in a chariot with one leg crossed over the other, wearing a toga, and holding a scepter. An angel with wings and a long dress stands beside him, blowing a horn and holding a palm branch. The chariot has a large wheel with intricate designs and is pulled by one horse visible on the left. Multiple people surround the chariot: some holding signs with Latin phrases, one holding a palm branch, and several in various poses. The chariot has a decorated platform with pillars and statues on top. The background shows a cloudy sky and trees.
