From ancient tales to modern warfare, these captivating images depict the raw power that can bring civilizations to their knees. The Narsinha Avatara of Vishnu engraving takes us back to Hindu mythology, showcasing the destructive force of Lord Vishnu in his half-man, half-lion form. As he annihilates evil forces, we witness the eternal battle between good and evil. Moving forward through time, The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse engraving reminds us of biblical prophecies. War, famine, pestilence, and death ride together as harbingers of destruction upon humanity's doorstep. An Angel destroying the Assyrian army depicts divine intervention against an oppressive force. This engraving symbolizes hope amidst despair as heavenly powers intervene to protect those in need. The beast from the abyss killing two witnesses before they ascend to Heaven portrays a chilling scene from Revelation. Here we witness destruction unleashed upon those who bear testimony against darkness itself. Johann Tserclaes' sack of Magdeburg during the Thirty Years War showcases human cruelty at its worst. Imperial General Tilly's ruthless advance leaves nothing but devastation in its wake - a stark reminder that war knows no mercy. Tragedies take flight with fierce eagle battles in Valnerina while protests turn violent as The Crowd Invades And Devastates The Church Of Giussano. These color lithographs capture moments when anger ignites into chaos and destruction becomes a means for change or revenge. From Belgium's fight for independence to Catalonia's victorious advance by Spanish national troops - these color lithos reveal how conflicts shape nations and leave behind trails of ruin on both sides. Fraterni rescues victims amidst Milan raids while episodes unfold during Battle Zuscima - these color lithos remind us of the human cost of war.
