EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and historically significant print captures the intense Battle of Santarem, a pivotal event in Portuguese history. Taking place in February 1834, government forces under Marshal Saldanha achieved a decisive victory over the Miguelists led by Dom Miguel. The defeat was so complete that Dom Miguel promptly renounced his claim to the throne, marking a turning point in the civil war that had gripped Portugal.
The image is filled with dramatic tension as soldiers from both sides clash on the battlefield, their determination and bravery evident in every movement. The chaos of war is palpable, yet there is also a sense of order and strategy at play as Marshal Saldanha's forces methodically overpower their opponents.
As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we are reminded of the sacrifices made and lives lost during this tumultuous period in Portuguese history. It serves as a poignant reminder of the price paid for power and control, as well as the resilience and strength of those who fought for what they believed in.
This print from Mary Evans Prints Online not only captures an important historical event but also serves as a testament to human endurance and perseverance in times of conflict.
