EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Pietro Lega (engraving)" takes us back to 19th century Italy, where an unsuccessful assassination attempt on Signor Crispi unfolded. The image, captured by an English School artist, showcases the intense moment when Pietro Lega, an Italian assassin, made his fateful move. The engraving beautifully portrays the tension and drama of this historical event. Lega's face reflects determination as he tries to carry out his mission against Crispi, a prominent figure in Italian politics at that time. The failed attempt is a testament to the resilience of Europe and its leaders. The presence of the Italian flag in the background reminds us of the strong nationalistic sentiments prevalent during this era. It symbolizes both pride and defiance within the Italian community. As we delve into this piece from Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in European history. This print not only captures a significant event but also serves as a reminder of how political tensions can shape nations and individuals alike. Bridgeman Images has once again provided us with an extraordinary glimpse into our past through their exceptional collection of fine art prints.
