EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic moment of the attempted assassination of King Humbert I of Italy by Giovanni Passannante in 1878. The illustration, created by Tancredi Scarpelli in 1930, showcases the intensity and chaos that unfolded during this historic event. Giovanni Passannante, an anarchist from Naples, made a bold and audacious attempt on the life of King Humbert I. This act of political violence shook Italy to its core and left a lasting impact on its history. The image depicts Passannante lunging towards the king with a weapon in hand, while surrounded by a flurry of commotion. The colors used in this artwork add depth and vibrancy to the scene, capturing both the tension and significance of this pivotal moment. The Italian flag prominently displayed in the background serves as a reminder of national pride amidst these tumultuous times. Tancredi Scarpelli's skillful illustration brings this historical event to life, allowing viewers to witness firsthand one man's desperate attempt to challenge authority. It is through images like these that we can gain insight into past struggles for power and understand how they have shaped our present world. This print is part of Bridgeman Images' collection from Fine Art Finder, providing us with glimpses into significant moments throughout history. It serves as a powerful reminder that even within seemingly peaceful societies, acts such as these can disrupt stability and leave an indelible mark on nations for generations to come.
