EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the intense gaze of Sante Caserio, an Italian anarchist who forever etched his name in history as the assassin of Sadi Carnot. The portrait, featured in "Le Parisien" in 1894, offers a glimpse into Caserio's life behind bars. The unknown artist skillfully depicts Caserio with remarkable detail, emphasizing his strong features and piercing eyes that seem to hold a mix of determination and defiance. It is evident that this engraving was created during a time when press coverage played a significant role in shaping public opinion. As we delve into this piece, we are transported back to the late 19th century - a time marked by political unrest and social upheaval. Anarchism was gaining momentum across Europe, challenging established norms and advocating for radical change. In this context, Caserio emerges as both an emblematic figurehead and a symbol of resistance against oppressive systems. This print serves as a historical artifact that invites contemplation on themes such as justice, rebellion, and the power dynamics between individuals and institutions. Stefano Bianchetti's masterful craftsmanship brings us face-to-face with one of history's most controversial figures while reminding us of the enduring impact art can have on our understanding of complex narratives. Displayed within private collections today, this engraving continues to captivate viewers with its powerful portrayal of Sante Caserio – an embodiment of anarchism at its most extreme.
