The work

The consul Cicero denounces Catiline in front of the entire Senate, who had hatched a conspiracy against Cicero himself and the entire Res Publica, pronouncing the Oratio in Catilinam Prima in Senatu Habita, i.e. the Prima Catilinaria. Catiline is in the foreground as an outsider and at a safe distance from Cicero, intent on listening contemptuously to his opponent and meditating on his misdeeds. Catiline's hands almost seem to sink like claws into the folds of his toga. While Cicero attacks Catiline[1], the other senators, who listen in a daze to Cicero's accusation against Catiline (that is, of conspiring against the Roman Republic and of having hired assassins to kill him), have already moved away from the seat of the rebel, who remained completely apart from the rest of the assembly and sitting hunched over. Most of the senators listen and look attentively at Cicero, while a few others (those higher up, near Catiline's seat) observe the accused with a dismayed expression and talk among themselves. Furthermore, the light that illuminates Cicero is warm and dazzling, while Catiline seems to be rather in the shadow compared to him.
