The Battle of the Volturno, the Arrival of the Piedmontese on the Field of Capua
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving by Konrad Grob transports us back to a pivotal moment in European history - The Battle of the Volturno during the Second Italian War of Independence. With meticulous detail and skillful artistry, Grob brings to life the dramatic scene as the Piedmontese forces arrive on the field of Capua. The print captures a sense of anticipation and tension as soldiers clad in their military regalia stand ready for battle. The Italian flag proudly waves in defiance against a backdrop of smoke-filled skies, symbolizing both unity and resistance. It is an emblematic representation not only of Italy's struggle for independence but also Europe's complex political landscape during this era. Grob's illustration was originally published in Illustrated Times on November 17th, 1860, providing viewers with a visual narrative that spoke volumes about courage, sacrifice, and national identity. Through his masterful use of light and shadow, he conveys both heroism and vulnerability within each figure present on that fateful day. As we gaze upon this historical artwork today, we are reminded not only of past conflicts but also how art can serve as a powerful medium for storytelling. This print serves as a testament to human resilience and determination while honoring those who fought bravely for their ideals.
