Curia of Pompey, Rome · 44 BC
Daggers Beneath Pompey's Statue
By early 44 BC Gaius Julius Caesar had won the civil war and been named dictator for life. To many senators his power, his honors and the rumors that he wanted to be king were intolerable. More than sixty of them, Suetonius says, joined a conspiracy led by Marcus Junius Brutus and Gaius Cassius Longinus, several of them men Caesar had pardoned and promoted.
On 15 March the Senate met in the hall attached to the Theater of Pompey, since the old Senate house was being rebuilt. Ancient writers report warnings and omens that Caesar ignored. As he took his seat, the conspirators gathered round on the pretext of a petition. Tillius Cimber caught hold of his toga, and Publius Servilius Casca struck first, from behind. According to Suetonius, Caesar received twenty-three wounds, and a physician later judged only one of them fatal. Suetonius reports that he died with a single groan and no words, though some said he spoke to Brutus in Greek, calling him child. The famous Latin line was made famous by Shakespeare and is not in the ancient sources. Plutarch says he fell at the base of Pompey's statue.
The piece
The painting is all white wool, purple and marble. Caesar sits at its center in a purple toga and laurel wreath, turning in alarm toward the senator gripping his shoulder. Around him the circle tightens: a raised blade above, another half-hidden in a fold of cloth, a man in the foreground drawing his toga close. Above them all, the marble Pompey stands with his arm outstretched.

Size guide
Find the right size
