EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Sebastiano De Albertis' masterpiece, "Light Cavalry" an oil painting on wood created in 1890. The artwork measures 15x27 cm and depicts a scene from the 19th century, capturing the essence of military life during that era. In this dynamic composition, we witness a group of men dressed in historical military uniforms crossing a river on horseback. The artist skillfully portrays their swift motion as they traverse the water with determination and grace. The landscape surrounding them is bathed in sunlight, creating a tranquil atmosphere that contrasts with the intensity of their mission. De Albertis's attention to detail is evident not only in his depiction of human figures but also in his portrayal of horses. These majestic animals play a significant role in this artwork, symbolizing strength and loyalty. The horizontal format allows us to fully appreciate the vastness of this outdoor setting while emphasizing the unity within this medium-sized group. It transports us back to an era where armies relied on light cavalry for reconnaissance and quick strikes. Through this remarkable illustration and painting, De Albertis captures both history and artistry simultaneously. This print serves as a testament to his talent as well as an homage to those who served bravely in light cavalry units during times long past.
