EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph "Sape Volante, 1853" by Denis-Auguste-Marie Raffet takes us back to the intense Siege of Rome in 1849. This historical artwork, measuring 22.2x32.4 cm, is housed at the Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA. The print depicts a scene from the battle as soldiers clad in uniformed attire confront each other with determination and courage. The artist skillfully captures the clash between two opposing forces during this significant moment in history. At the center of attention stands a flying sape, an ingenious military tactic used to breach barricades and fortifications during warfare. The sape volante becomes a symbol of innovation and strategic thinking amidst conflict. Published by Auguste Bry and printed by Jean François Gihaut, this engraving showcases intricate details that bring life to every soldier's expression and movement on the battlefield. This artwork serves as a reminder of the bravery displayed by those who fought for their respective causes during this turbulent period. It sheds light on both sides' relentless fight for power and control over Rome. Thanks to Carnegie Inc. 's generous gift, we can now appreciate this remarkable piece that encapsulates not only an important chapter in history but also highlights Raffet's artistic talent in capturing such dramatic moments through his work.
