EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic Battle of Bailen in 1808, depicting the dramatic surrender of French Imperial forces in Spain. Painted by Jose Casado del Alisal in the 19th century, this oil on canvas artwork brings to life a significant moment during the Peninsular War. The scene showcases a group of weary and defeated French soldiers, their uniforms tattered and hats lowered in submission. The Spanish army stands tall and victorious, led by their courageous general. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully portrays the emotions etched on each soldier's face, reflecting both triumph and despair. The painting transports us back to that early morning on July 19th when history was made. It serves as a powerful reminder of the resilience and determination displayed by the Spanish people against Napoleon's Grand Army. This piece from Bradley Smith's Carousel Collection not only commemorates an important military event but also pays homage to fine artistry. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we are reminded of France's failed attempt to conquer Spain and how it ultimately shaped European history. The Battle of Bailen remains an iconic symbol of resistance against foreign invasion, forever etched into our collective memory through this remarkable painting by Jose Casado del Alisal.
