EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print commemorates the momentous Battle of Chacabuco, which took place on February 12, 1817, during the Chilean War of Independence. The battle saw General Jose de San Martin, a key figure in the Argentinian Revolution of 1810, leading the Argentine and Chilean forces to a decisive victory over the Spanish. San Martin, who had already secured Argentina's independence, continued his quest for freedom in Chile. The Battle of Chacabuco was a pivotal moment in South American history, marking the end of Spanish rule in Chile. The victorious Argentine and Chilean troops, led by San Martin, Urquiza, Belgrano, Rivadavia, Sarmiento, and other prominent military leaders such as Mitre, Saavedra, Uriburu, Roca, Pena, Las, and Figueroa, among others, are depicted in this print, triumphantly raising the Argentine and Chilean flags over the defeated Spanish forces. The print was created to mark the centenary of the Argentinian Revolution of 1810, a revolution that began the process of freeing South America from Spanish colonial rule. The names of the prominent leaders of the revolution and the battles they fought are inscribed on the print, immortalizing their contributions to the cause of independence. The Battle of Chacabuco was a turning point in the history of South America, paving the way for the eventual independence of several countries in the region. This print serves as a reminder of the bravery and determination of the soldiers who fought for freedom and the leaders who inspired them to do so.
