"La Battaglia di Ponte Milvio" (The Battle of Milvian Bridge) is a notable engraving by the Italian artist Pietro Aquila (1650–1692), which depicts the historic battle between the Roman emperors Constantine I and Maxentius on October 28, 312 AD. This battle, which took place at the Milvian Bridge over the Tiber River in Rome, is considered a pivotal event in Roman history and early Christian history, as Constantine's victory led to his sole rule over the Roman Empire and the eventual adoption of Christianity as the empire's state religion.

Pietro Aquila's work on the subject is a fine example of 17th-century baroque printmaking. The engraving is known for its intricate detail and dynamic composition, capturing the intensity and chaos of the battle. Aquila's depiction pays particular attention to the figures' expressions and the movement of the soldiers and horses, imbuing the scene with a sense of drama and action that is characteristic of the Baroque period's artistic style.

The artwork serves not only as a piece of historical representation but also as a reflection of the cultural and religious shifts of the time. The Battle of Milvian Bridge has been a popular subject for artists throughout history, as it symbolizes the triumph of Christianity. Aquila's interpretation would have resonated with his contemporaries, who saw in Constantine's victory the hand of divine providence.

While the exact date of the creation of "La Battaglia di Ponte Milvio" is not clearly documented, it is likely that Aquila produced this work in the latter part of the 17th century, during his career in Rome, where he was known for his engravings after famous paintings and for his original compositions. Aquila's engraving not only stands as a work of art but also as a historical document that offers insight into the iconography and ideology of the late 17th century.
