EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "Assault on the Monastery of San Engracio in Zaragoza, 8th February 1809" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Painted by Louis Lejeune, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 150x128 cm and is currently housed at the Château de Versailles in France. The scene depicted showcases the intensity and chaos of war during the Spanish War of Independence. The monastery stands tall as a symbol of resistance against Napoleon's invasion, while troops and soldiers engage in fierce combat around it.

One cannot help but be drawn to a striking statue of Pieta amidst all the turmoil, serving as a reminder that even amidst destruction, there is still room for compassion and hope. It adds an element of poignancy to this dramatic portrayal. This historic event holds great significance not only for Spain but also for Europe as a whole.
