EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in 19th century Italian high society, as men gather for a ceremony of cremation. The scene is both somber and intriguing, with the smoke rising from the incineration adding an air of mystery to the event.
The men are dressed in their finest attire, with one gentleman sporting a top hat that signifies his status as a capitalist in this capitalist society. The engraving by Albert Keller beautifully captures the historical significance of this moment, showcasing the cultural practices of the time.
The colored details in the print bring to life the vibrancy of Milan during this era, while also highlighting the solemnity of death and cremation. It's fascinating to see how these individuals from high society engaged in such rituals, shedding light on their beliefs and customs surrounding mortality.
Overall, this print serves as a window into 19th century Italy and offers a glimpse into a world where ceremony and tradition were deeply intertwined with daily life. Albert Keller's depiction of capitalism and cremation is not only visually striking but also thought-provoking, inviting viewers to reflect on history and culture through his lens.
