EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Charles-Albert I, the Prince of Carignan, leading the Piedmontese Army as they cross the Tessin River. The engraving, created by an Italian School in the 19th century and now housed in Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, showcases a pivotal moment in history. In this scene, we witness Charles-Albert's commanding presence as he confidently rides his horse across the bridge at Gravelone. The river flows peacefully beneath him while soldiers and troops follow closely behind. Dressed in a distinguished uniform befitting his rank, Charles-Albert exudes authority and determination. The significance of this image lies not only in its artistic beauty but also in its historical context. It represents a crucial chapter during the war of Italian independence when Charles-Albert played a vital role as commander of the Piedmontese Army. This courageous act would later lead to his ascension as King of Sardinia. As we admire this remarkable piece from www. bridgemanimages. com, let us reflect on the bravery and leadership exhibited by individuals like Charles-Albert who shaped our world through their unwavering commitment to freedom and justice.
