EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Le Cinque Giornate Di Milano, Assalto Agli Archi Di Porta Nuova" takes us back to the historical events of 19th century Italy. Created by the talented artist Edouardo Matania, this print captures a pivotal moment during the first Italian War of Independence. The scene depicted here is one of intense struggle and determination as Italians unite in their fight for independence. The illustration was originally commissioned for Francesco Bertolini's book "Storia del Risorgimento Italiano" (History of the Italian Resurgence) published in 1889. In this particular image, we witness the assault on Porta Nuova's arches during the five days known as "Le Cinque Giornate di Milano" (The Five Days of Milan). This event marked a significant turning point in Italy's unification process. Matania skillfully portrays the chaos and heroism that unfolded during these historic days. The Italian flag proudly waves amidst smoke-filled skies, symbolizing hope and unity among its people. This powerful visual narrative serves as a reminder of Europe's rich history and how it shaped modern-day Italy. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported back to an era where bravery prevailed against all odds. It stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit that led to Italy's eventual unification and inspires us with its timeless message: strength lies within unity.
