Year 2017

Hannibal Barca, Punic general from Carthage, is considered one of the greatest commanders of antiquity, alongside Julius Caesar and Alexander the Great. He is sometimes referred to as “the father of strategy” because his military tactics were adopted by his great nemesis, Rome. Setting out from Carthaginian-dominated Spain with a small army, he fought his way over the Pyrenees and crossed the Alps with elephants and a full baggage train at the outbreak of the Second Punic War. In his first few years in Italy, he won three battles — at Trebia, Lake Trasimene and Cannae.This remarkable strategist is the inspiration for another of Montblanc’s high-artistry writing instruments, which is a magical combination of technical virtuosity and boundless creativity. Leaning on the skills and the métiers d’arts that Montblanc’s craftspeople are famous for, this new creation defies the imagination.

The High Artistry Homage to Hannibal Barca Limited Edition 86 makes reference to the 86,000 men who crossed the Alps with Hannibal, with 86 pens available. In another design innovation, this pen’s cap is made of wood embellished with a lasered pattern that recalls the panther skin Hannibal and his generals wore to protect their left arm and shoulder. The elephant trunk is made of red gold, its eyes are set with cognac diamonds. The rose-gold nib is decorated with an engraving of a laurel wreath. In reference to his expedition through the Alps, the cap top is made of granite with the Montblanc emblem in mother-of-pearl.

Unavailable from Montblanc and really scarce on the secondary market, this example is in pristine sealed condition.
