"The Ides of March" is a notable painting by Sir Edward John Poynter, an English painter, designer, and draughtsman who served as President of the Royal Academy. Created in 1883, the painting is a historical work that depicts the assassination of Julius Caesar in the Roman Senate on the Ides of March, 44 BC. Poynter's attention to historical accuracy and detail is evident in the architectural elements, costumes, and the dramatic representation of the event.

The painting is significant for its portrayal of a pivotal moment in Roman history, capturing the tension and chaos of the scene. Poynter's use of color, light, and composition heightens the emotional impact of the assassination, as the figures of Brutus, Cassius, and the other conspirators converge on the doomed Caesar. The artwork reflects the Victorian fascination with classical history and the moral lessons that could be drawn from the past.

"The Ides of March" has been discussed in various art historical texts and is part of the collection of Hutchinson's History of the Nations, which provides a comprehensive overview of significant events and figures in world history. Poynter's painting stands as a testament to his skill as a historical genre painter and his ability to convey narrative through visual art. The work remains an important example of 19th-century British historical painting and contributes to the understanding of how the past has been interpreted and depicted in art.
