Description
Photograph of the fresco "Cicero's Oration" by Cesare Maccari, [s.d.]. Cicero is pictured to the left, standing in the center of the Roman senate, denouncing his political opponent Catiline. To the right and in the background, a hoarde of Roman senators ponder the speech, while to the far right, a lone senator sits off from the others. A door can be seen embedded in the fresco to the right, while a chair is visible just underneath the bottom edge to the left. Above the fresco an inscription in Italian reads "A Fortuna Li Fece Mai Essere Insolenti".
