EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the War of the French Revolution and anti-revolutionary movements in Holland. The scene depicts the daring passage of the river Waal on January 14,1795, as soldiers traverse its frozen surface. Engraved by Berthaut after Swebach, this masterpiece now resides at the Bibliotheque of the Institut d'histoire de la revolution in Paris. The image transports us back to a time when Europe was engulfed in turmoil and political upheaval. It showcases the determination and resilience of both French and Dutch forces as they navigate treacherous conditions to advance their cause. The frozen river becomes a symbol of their shared struggle against oppression. Swebach's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, capturing not only the physical landscape but also conveying emotions that range from anticipation to fearlessness. The composition draws our eyes towards the soldiers braving icy waters while highlighting their military uniforms with precision. As we gaze upon this engraving, we are reminded of how art can immortalize historical events for generations to come. It serves as a testament to human courage and sacrifice during times of war. This piece invites us to reflect on our own place within history and appreciate those who have fought for freedom throughout centuries past.
