Légende

'The Ides of March', 1883. 'The persistent warnings given to Julius Caesar by the augurs as to the fatefulness of "The Ides of March" for him, had rendered his wife Calpurnia highly nervous for his safety. She is seen at the Palace entrance pointing to, and excitedly discussing with him, the dreaded significance of the mysterious comet, which appeared flashing brightly in the heavens previous to his death. Julius Caesar was assassinated on 15th March 44 BC.' Painting in the Manchester Art Gallery.
