EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration by Tancredi Scarpelli, we witness a poignant moment in history as the king of Sicily, Manfred I, prepares to leave his beloved wife Helene (Elena) and their children behind to face his rival Charles I of Anjou in a fierce battle. The year is 1266, and tensions run high as these two powerful figures clash for control over the region. The scene is filled with emotion as Manfred stands tall and resolute, clad in armor and ready for war. His gaze meets that of Helene's, who wears an expression of both concern and unwavering support. Their children cling tightly to their mother's side, perhaps too young to fully comprehend the gravity of the situation unfolding before them. Scarpelli masterfully captures the weighty atmosphere through intricate details: from the ornate clothing worn by each character to the somber color palette that sets a melancholic tone. This historical snapshot serves as a reminder of sacrifice and duty during times of political turmoil. Taken from Paolo Giudici's "Storia d'Italia" (History-D Italy), this print transports us back centuries ago when kingdoms clashed and lives were forever changed. It reminds us that even those in positions of power are not immune to heartache or separation when faced with defending what they hold dear.
