A Triumph over the Forces of King Juba. On the left, a Victory holds a wreath over the head of Caesar, who is seated in a chariot drawn by two horses and accompanied by five soldiers. A group of captives with their arms tied behind their backs walk in front of the chariot. Behind them there are two standards, trumpeters, and the lances of soldiers who have moved on out of sight, and further back two trees, a rotunda, and a larger building with three orders of columns applied to its facade. In the foreground there are rocks and grass. The rim is yellow. The back is inscribed in the middle in black 'Abbatute le forze del Re juba' (King Juba's forces defeated). There are single yellow bands inside and outside the footring and round the shoulder, and two round the edge.no cataloguereferenceexhibition-1605adlib-exhibition-160504d3c358-0bef-3d8f-8df5-14f16987ac1bItalian Maiolica in the Fitzwilliam MuseumMAR.C.64-19121accession numberMAR.C.64-191279806priref79806urihttps://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/79806https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/79806on frontpainted in blackAbbatute le forze del Re jubareferenceagent-149638adlib-agent-1496387376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8The Fitzwilliam MuseumC.B.

Juba escaped after the battle but committed suicide. His infant son, Juba II (d. 23 AD), was led (or according to Plutarch, carried) in the triumph and, when adult, became a Roman citizen and was reinstated.
The dish was probably made in the workshop of Guido Durantino (Guido Fontana) or if between 1565 and 1571 possibly in the workshop of his son, Orazio Fontana. It is one of a series made in Urbino between 1561-2 and 1585 which are related to drawings of several versions of a ‘Triumph of Caesar’ attributed to Federico Zuccaro (1540/1-1609). In three of these drawings the chariot and horses are seen approaching the viewer from the left: one in the Louvre (4517), and two in the Uffizi (12264F, Santarelli collection, and 11881F ). A fourth drawing shows the chariot in profile (Pierpont Morgan Library I 80 A) and a fifth shows it in profile but moving away from the viewer towards the right (New York private collection).referenceterm-106602adlib-term-106602bbb4c00f-eefa-3d64-9441-7a75aa07736e16th Centuryreferenceterm-10618adlib-term-106189ebc0ae1-8cf8-312b-832c-9cf44da02136Renaissancereferenceterm-110708adlib-term-110708ef038505-1555-3c61-b6e2-cadcedf6c42aliteralItalyItalycountryliteralThe MarchesThe Marchesregion.Urbinoreferenceterm-39575adlib-term-39575cdf6707a-1eeb-3622-a26b-6e54f1f8d4abtin-glazereferenceterm-42861adlib-term-428615b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956cearthenwareDiametercm43.5Heightcm8referencemedia-206926adlib-media-206926e2904d74-ef50-3d43-961e-fcb5f3567f1djpegaa/aa37/MAR_C_64_1912_1_200901_mfj22_dc2.jpg1heightpixels1025widthpixels94016162823652221imagejpegaa/aa37/mid_MAR_C_64_1912_1_200901_mfj22_dc2.jpg1heightpixels545widthpixels50016162823652221imagejpegaa/aa37/MAR_C_64_1912_1_200901_mfj22_dc2.jpg1heightpixels1025widthpixels94016162823652221imagejpegaa/aa37/preview_MAR_C_64_1912_1_200901_mfj22_dc2.jpg1heightpixels273widthpixels25016162823652221image0media
