EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting portrait depicts Ataulf, the Visigothic King who ruled from 410 to 415, following the reign of his cousin Alaric I. Born around 390, Ataulf succeeded Alaric after his death and is best known for his marriage to the Roman Empress Galla Placidia in 414. The union between the Visigothic king and the Roman empress marked a significant moment in the history of Europe, as it strengthened the relationship between the Roman Empire and the Visigoths. Ataulf's reign was marked by military campaigns and political maneuvering. He was a powerful and charismatic leader, who was able to expand the Visigothic kingdom and secure its position in the region. This vertical, upright, engraving captures the essence of Ataulf's masculine presence, with his strong jawline, piercing gaze, and regal bearing. The intricate details of his clothing and the background suggest the historical significance of this important figure in European history. Ataulf's reign came to an end in 415 when he was assassinated during a military campaign against the Romans. Despite his untimely death, his legacy as a successful Visigothic king and a key player in the political landscape of Europe during the late Roman period endures. This portrait serves as a reminder of the rich history and complex relationships that existed between the Visigoths and the Roman Empire during this period.
