The classical past became fertile ground for Renaissance artists, as this grand tapestry reveals. It celebrates one of the most daring military exploits in ancient history—Hannibal’s near-defeat of Rome during the Second Punic War (218–203 B.C.E.). At center, the general receives the spoils of war after winning a battle. The Latin inscription describes the action: “He leaves those who have been laid low in hard combat to reckon with trembling fingers a treasure of gold.
