EDITORS COMMENTS
"This evocative image captures the inscription on the pedestal of the statue of Marshal Johann Matthias von der Schulenburg, a heroic defender of the city of Corfu during the Turkish invasion of 1716. The Latin inscription, etched in modern age, commemorates the bravery and dedication of von der Schulenburg, who successfully repelled the invading forces and saved the Ionian Islands from certain destruction. The statue, erected in the 18th century, stands as a testament to the historical significance of this event in the annals of Greek history. The inscription, written in elegant Latin script, reads "JOHANNES MATTHIAS DE SCHULENBURGIS MILITISSIMO D.N.C.F.R.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C.C.F.C
