EDITORS COMMENTS
The engraving "Texas again invaded, Capture of San Antonio" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by the English School in the 19th century, this print captures the intense atmosphere surrounding the capture of San Antonio during a Mexican invasion. The image showcases Mexican soldiery advancing upon the city, their determined faces reflecting their military prowess. Intriguingly, this historic event highlights the ongoing conflict between Mexico and Texas, which was then part of the United States. The Texican judges and jury can be seen observing from afar as they witness their beloved city being overtaken. The composition evokes a sense of tension and uncertainty as both sides clash for control. This engraving originally appeared as an illustration in The Illustrated London News on November 5th, 1842. It serves as a powerful reminder of how historical events were documented and shared with audiences during that era. Preserved within a private collection today, this print offers viewers an opportunity to delve into Texas' past struggles for independence and sovereignty. As we gaze upon this artwork from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back to a time when borders were contested and nations fought fiercely for control over land.
