This aquatint print, titled "The Entry of the French into Milan, 25 Floreal An IV (14th May 1796)", takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Antoine Charles Horace Vernet, also known as Carle Vernet, this artwork captures the grandeur and drama of the event it depicts. In this scene, we witness the triumphant arrival of the French army into Milan during the Cisalpine Republic. The soldiers march through Arco della Pace with cannons in tow, symbolizing their conquest and power. The bustling Corso Sempione serves as a backdrop for this historic occasion. Vernet's attention to detail is remarkable; every figure is meticulously rendered, showcasing his skill as an artist. Through his masterful use of aquatint technique, he brings life and depth to each element within the composition.

We can almost hear the cheers of both conquerors and conquered echoing through time. "The Entry of the French into Milan" not only commemorates a pivotal moment in European history but also showcases Vernet's artistic prowess.
