EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a pivotal moment in history as Alvas statue is defiantly dragged through the streets of Antwerp. Created by Raoul Charles Verlet, this print showcases the intense emotions and powerful symbolism associated with this event. Ferdinando Alvarez de Toledo, Duke of Alva, was infamous for his cruel dictatorial power as the Spanish governor of the Netherlands under Philip II. His oppressive rule had sparked rebellion and resentment among the Flemish people during the Dutch revolt and Eighty Years War. In this lithograph, we witness a display of public defiance against tyranny. The crowd that surrounds Alvas statue represents an entire nation's collective hatred towards their oppressor. This image becomes a potent symbol of occupation and resistance in Flanders. The demonstration depicted here exudes a sense of unity and determination for freedom. It serves as a reminder that even in times when despotism seems insurmountable, there will always be those who stand up against injustice. Verlet's skillful engraving brings to life every detail - from the expressions on people's faces to the fervor with which they pull at the statue. It transports us back to that tumultuous period in history where ordinary citizens found strength within themselves to challenge authority. As part of The Stapleton Collection held privately, this lithograph continues to inspire contemplation about historical struggles for liberty and serves as a testament to humanity's unwavering spirit when faced with oppression.
