EDITORS COMMENTS
The Battle of Millesimo, 25 Germinal, Year 4 (April 1796) captured in this stunning aquatint print by Jean Duplessi-Bertaux is a testament to the fierce struggle that unfolded on the banks of a river in Liguria. Depicting a pivotal moment during Napoleon Bonaparte's Italian campaign, this artwork from the Private Collection showcases the crossing of Austrian forces as they clashed with the mighty French army. The artist, Antoine Charles Horace Vernet (Carle), masterfully brings to life the intensity and chaos of battle through his intricate engravings. The swirling currents of the river mirror the tumultuous nature of war while highlighting Napoleon's strategic brilliance in maneuvering his troops across challenging terrain. This historic event marked a turning point in European history, as it propelled Napoleon towards his eventual rise to power. The image captures not only the physical clash between armies but also reflects upon themes such as courage, sacrifice, and determination. As part of The Stapleton Collection and made available by Bridgeman Images, this print serves as an invaluable historical document that allows us to peer into one of Napoleon's most significant military triumphs. It reminds us how art can preserve and immortalize moments that shaped our world forever.
