EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a pivotal moment in Italian history, the Battle of Calatafimi in Sicily during the Risorgimento. The painting by Remigio Legat depicts the clash between Giuseppe Garibaldi's troops, known as "the Thousand" and the army of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies on May 15,1860. In this intense scene, we witness the bravery and determination of both sides as they engage in combat. The vibrant colors and meticulous brushstrokes bring to life the chaos and violence of war. The military forces are depicted with great attention to detail, showcasing their uniforms and weaponry. Notably, amidst this battle scene is an intriguing presence - members of religious orders can be seen alongside soldiers. This inclusion highlights how deeply intertwined religion was with political affairs during this period. The significance of this event cannot be overstated; it marked a turning point in Italy's struggle for unification. Garibaldi's victory at Calatafimi paved the way for further successes that ultimately led to a united Italy under King Victor Emmanuel II. This print serves as a reminder of Italy's rich history and its fight for independence. It stands proudly within Museo del Risorgimento in Milan, where visitors can delve into these transformative moments that shaped modern-day Italy.
