EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "The War, Austrian Lancers passing the Tombs of the Scaligers, Verona" takes us back to a significant moment in history during the Second Italian War of Independence. The image showcases a procession of Austrian lancers on horseback as they pass by the grand tombs of the Scaliger family in Verona, Italy. The scene is filled with architectural splendor and rich symbolism. The imposing tombs stand as a reminder of Verona's glorious past and its noble lineage. As these brave soldiers ride through this historic city, their presence evokes both awe and tension. The austere beauty of the architecture contrasts sharply with the impending conflict that looms over Europe. Intriguingly, an Italian flag can be seen fluttering in the background, symbolizing hope for independence amidst foreign occupation. This visual juxtaposition encapsulates the struggle faced by Italians during this turbulent period. Created by an unknown English artist from the 19th century, this engraving was originally published in The Illustrated London News on July 9th, 1859. It offers us a glimpse into one chapter of European history when nations clashed and aspirations for freedom ignited hearts across Italy. This powerful artwork reminds us that even amid war and political strife, art has always been able to capture moments frozen in time - moments that continue to resonate with audiences today.
