EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking chromolithography print from around 1890 captures the intense battle scene of The Corsican patriots, led by Pascal Paoli, fighting for the independence of their country against the forces of Etienne Francois de Choiseul, who sought to attach Corsica to France in 1769. The image vividly depicts the clash between two opposing ideologies - one fighting for freedom and sovereignty, while the other seeking to expand its empire.
The bravery and determination of the Corsican patriots are palpable in this artwork, as they stand united under Paoli's leadership against a powerful adversary. The historical significance of this momentous struggle is evident in every detail of this print, showcasing the fierce spirit of resistance that defined Corsican identity during this turbulent period.
