EDITORS COMMENTS
Capture of the Courtine 6-7" is a captivating lithograph by the renowned French artist Auguste Raffet, created during the Expedition de Rome in 1859. This masterpiece is part of the "Souvenirs d'Italie" series and is currently housed at the Art Institute of Chicago. The image portrays a moment of triumph in the Italian Wars as French troops, led by a determined-looking officer, break through the Courtine walls. The walls, depicted in intricate detail, appear broken and crumbling, a testament to the fierce battle that has just taken place. A group of soldiers, their faces etched with the intensity of the moment, follow closely behind their leader. Raffet's use of lithography, specifically lithotint, allows for the striking contrast between the black figures and the warm ivory background. The off-white wove paper adds to the overall texture and depth of the image. The scene captures the raw emotion and energy of warfare, as well as the strategic importance of the capture of the walls. The image is a poignant reminder of the history of the Italian Wars and the role France played in shaping it. Auguste Raffet's "Capture of the Courtine 6-7" is a powerful and evocative work of art that continues to captivate viewers with its intricate detail, historical significance, and emotional depth. It is a must-see for anyone interested in military history, 19th-century art, or the rich cultural heritage of France and Italy. This lithograph is a testament to Raffet's skill as an artist and his ability to capture the essence of a moment in time. It is a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery, and a reminder of the important role that art plays in preserving and sharing our collective history.
