EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century takes us back to a significant moment in history - the Italy-Austria War of 1859. The image depicts Austrian soldiers who were wounded during the Battle of Montebello being transported by rail to Voghera, skillfully assisted by the Zouaves. The scene is filled with a somber atmosphere as we witness these brave troops, their faces etched with pain and exhaustion, being carefully attended to on this arduous journey. The artist's attention to detail allows us to truly empathize with their suffering and sacrifice. As we delve into this historical snapshot, it becomes evident that war knows no boundaries or borders. Here we see Austrians far away from home, fighting on foreign soil in defense of their cause. This powerful image serves as a reminder of the human cost paid during times of conflict. Preserved within a private collection, this engraving offers an invaluable glimpse into Europe's turbulent past. It stands as a testament not only to the bravery and resilience of those involved but also to our collective duty to remember and learn from such events. Credit must be given where due: Santiago Ortega has masterfully captured this poignant moment through his artistry. While its commercial use is prohibited, let us appreciate this print for what it represents - an enduring symbol of courage amidst chaos and an opportunity for reflection upon our shared history.
