EDITORS COMMENTS
In this watercolor print, we are transported back to the historic Battle of Berezina on November 28,1812. The scene depicts the French army desperately attempting to cross the treacherous river in their retreat from Russia during the Napoleonic War. Painted by Mauro Conconi in the 19th century, this artwork now resides in Milan's Civico Museo del Risorgimento. The image captures a pivotal moment in history as we witness the struggle and determination of both sides involved. The swirling waters of the Berezina River serve as a formidable obstacle for Napoleon's troops, who face freezing temperatures and mounting casualties. Their efforts to escape capture by Russian forces are evident through their resolute expressions and tireless movements. Conconi's skillful use of watercolors brings life to every detail - from soldiers wading through icy currents to horses straining against their burdensome loads. Each brushstroke conveys a sense of urgency and chaos that permeated this fateful day. As viewers, we cannot help but be drawn into this dramatic tableau; it serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the indomitable spirit that drives men even amidst seemingly insurmountable odds. This historical masterpiece stands as a testament to bravery, sacrifice, and resilience - an enduring tribute to those who fought valiantly during one of history's most significant conflicts.
