Orlando furioso (The Frenzy of Orlando) by Filippo Pistrucci, engraving

According to Greek and Roman mythology, the Trojan Laocoon warned his fellow Trojans not to bring the giant wooden horse (seen here), gifted to them by the Greeks, within the walls of troy. Poseidon, the god of the sea and a deity who favored the Greeks, sent sea-serpents from the sea to strangle Laocoon. The horse was the Greek hero Odysseus' idea and the Greeks had a Greek named Sinon tell the Trojans that if the Trojans did not bring it within the city walls, the Greeks would defeat the Trojans. This early 1900s illustration shows the Trojans reveling in the thought that the horse was about

The Great Triumphal Chariot of the Emperor Maximilian I Albrecht Dürer (German, 1471-1528). The Great Triumphal Chariot of the Emperor Maximilian I, 1522, begun 1518. Woodcut from eight blocks on eight sheets of laid paper, 16 x 95 in. (40.5 x 241.3 cm). Albrecht Dürer revolutionized the techniques of woodcut and engraving, and was the first artist to achieve fame through his work as a printmaker. In 1512 the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I, who recognized how useful the new medium of printmaking would be for spreading his fame and burnishing his image, commissioned Dürer to create in his honor a gigantic, multipart woodcut inspired by imperial processions of antiquity. The emperor died before the ambitious work was completed, but the entrepreneurial Dürer published the last eight-block section of the procession as a tribute to him. Maximilian is depicted as a latter-day Roman emperor, riding in an elaborate chariot whose four wheels express in Latin his renown (gloria), dignity (dign
