EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Angelo Emo bombarda Sfax nell Africa, 1785" transports us back to the rich history of Venice in the late 18th century. The image depicts a pivotal moment when Angelo Emo, an esteemed Venetian admiral, bombards the city of Sfax in Africa. Created by an anonymous Italian artist from the 19th century, this print offers a glimpse into Venetian naval power and expansion during that era. The intricate details and skillful craftsmanship showcased in this engraving are truly remarkable. From the meticulously depicted architecture of Sfax to the dynamic depiction of cannon fire erupting from Emo's ship, every element comes together to create a sense of drama and intensity. This artwork was originally featured as an illustration for "Storia Veneta Espressa in Centocinquanta Tavole" published by Grimaldo in 1867. It serves as a visual representation of Venice's historical significance as a maritime powerhouse. As we admire this piece, we are reminded not only of Italy's vibrant past but also its place within Europe and the European Union today. The legacy left behind by figures like Angelo Emo continues to shape our understanding and appreciation for both Italian culture and European history at large.
