EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "At ease IC048 / 030" takes us back in time to the iconic Hadrian's Wall. The reconstruction line drawing beautifully depicts a Roman soldier at rest, shield and pilum by his side. The location of this scene is based on Black Carts Turret (29a), adding historical accuracy to the artwork. Attributed to the talented artist Philip Corke, this illustration showcases his remarkable attention to detail and deep understanding of military history. Created between c. 1985 - c. 2000, Corke's work transports us into the heart of ancient Rome, allowing us to witness a momentary pause in the soldier's duty. The graphic representation captures not only the essence of Roman military life but also pays homage to their distinctive costume and weaponry. With precision and skill, Corke brings forth an image that resonates with both authenticity and artistic flair. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the bravery and resilience exhibited by these soldiers who once guarded Hadrian's Wall centuries ago. This piece serves as a testament to their unwavering dedication while offering viewers an opportunity for reflection on our shared past. Historic England has preserved this extraordinary snapshot from history through Philip Corke's lens, ensuring that future generations can appreciate its significance within our cultural heritage.
