EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon portrait captures the essence of King Constantine I of Greece, also known as the Hellenes. The image showcases his triumphant return to the throne after a period of exile in Switzerland, symbolized by the majestic mountains on the left side of the print. The artist, Stefano Bianchetti, skillfully combines elements of engraving and caricature to create a unique representation of this historical figure. Through bold lines and intricate details, he brings out both the regal nature and human qualities of King Constantine I. The portrait is featured on the cover of "Le petit journal" from December 20th, 1920. This publication was widely read during that time and played an important role in disseminating news and political cartoons to its readership. As we gaze upon this artwork today, it serves as a window into Greek history during the early 20th century. It reminds us of King Constantine I's resilience and determination to reclaim his position as ruler despite facing adversity. This particular print is part of a private collection with anonymous ownership. Its presence in this collection speaks to its value as a piece of art that captures not only historical significance but also artistic excellence. Stefano Bianchetti's talent shines through in this engraving-turned-caricature masterpiece, reminding us once again that art has always been intertwined with politics and storytelling throughout centuries past.
