About this image
A vivid political cartoon shows a startled Roman senator in gilded armor, clutching his head as flames and smoke engulf dramatic crumbling temples and the Senate (Senatus). The scene conveys historical disaster and satire, with bold colors, exaggerated expressions, and a chaotic skyline that highlights ancient Rome’s turmoil.

Oh yes . . . I remember seeing that when I picked it and didn't notice second time round. Loved those, all the Latin quotes and Caesar

Loved it, picked it as a stand out, reminds me a little of Asterix and Obelix
An asterix reference! Love it!
