The King of the Lombards
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour lithograph that takes us back to 19th century Italy. This exquisite print, part of a private collection, showcases the talent of an English School artist from that era. The artwork was created as an illustration for "The City in the Sea" a collection of stories recounting the heroic deeds of the old Venetians. The author, known for their work "Belt and Spur" sought inspiration from historical chronicles to bring this tale to life. In this vibrant image, we see a majestic king adorned in regal attire, representing the Lombard dynasty. His presence exudes power and authority as he stands against a backdrop featuring elements synonymous with Italian history – including the iconic Italian flag proudly displayed alongside maps of Europe and its nations. This lithograph not only captures a significant event but also serves as a visual testament to Italy's rich cultural heritage. It transports us to Venice, where Venetian royalty once reigned supreme. The intricate details and vivid colours make it clear why lithography was such a popular medium during this period. "The King of the Lombards" invites viewers on an artistic journey through time – offering glimpses into both European history and Italian identity. As we admire this remarkable piece, we are reminded of how art can transcend centuries and continue to captivate audiences today.
