EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intensity and historical significance of "The Battle and Crossing of the Tagliamento, 26 Ventose, Year 5 (March 1797)". Engraved by Jean Duplessi-Bertaux and based on the original work by Antoine Charles Horace Vernet, this aquatint transports us back to a pivotal moment in history. In this scene, we witness the relentless determination of Napoleon Bonaparte's French army as they face off against Austrian soldiers. The Tagliamento River serves as both an obstacle and a strategic advantage for these brave warriors. With their uniforms drenched in mud and sweat glistening on their brows, they press forward with unwavering resolve. The composition expertly captures the chaos of battle while highlighting key details such as Giula - a town that witnessed fierce fighting during Napoleon's Italian campaign. Each brushstroke brings life to this historic event, allowing us to feel the tension in the air and hear echoes of cannon fire. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Stapleton Collection, it is impossible not to be moved by its power. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by those who fought for their beliefs and shaped our world today. This print is a testament to both artistic skill and historical importance – an exquisite addition to any collection or display dedicated to preserving our past.
