EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in Cuban history - the Battle of Peralejo in 1895. Painted by renowned artist Antonio Maceo, this artwork depicts the intense clash between the forces of Maceo and Spanish army Chief Martinez Campos. Taking place on July 13th, this battle marked a pivotal event during the Cuban War of Independence. Intriguingly, at the forefront of Cuban forces stands Brigadier Santocildes, who tragically lost his life in this fierce confrontation. The image showcases an array of soldiers on horseback, armed with swords as they engage in combat amidst a battlefield filled with tension and determination. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this historical scene from the late 19th century. This particular print is part of a collection called "History of Cuba" produced by Geografico Universal for Susini y La Corona Cigar Company. It serves as both propaganda and educational material about Cuba's struggle for independence. Antonio Maceo's artistic prowess shines through in capturing not only the physicality but also the emotional intensity present during this battle. With its rich historical significance and powerful imagery, this print offers viewers a glimpse into one chapter of Cuba's fight for freedom against Spanish rule.
