EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in Italian history, depicting Alberico da Barbiano receiving a flag from Pope Urban VI in 1379. The image symbolizes the liberation of Italy from the Barbarians and serves as a powerful reminder of the country's resilience and triumph over adversity. Painted by Tancredi Scarpelli, this illustration was originally created for Storia d'Italia by Paolo Giudici in 1931. It showcases Alberico da Barbiano, an influential military leader known for his role in defending Italy against external threats during this tumultuous period. The scene is set in Cesena, where Pope Urban VI presents da Barbiano with the flag that boldly proclaims Italy's liberation from the Barbarians. This historic event marked a turning point for Italy and represented hope for its people who had long suffered under foreign rule. The composition beautifully captures the emotions felt at that time, with da Barbiano standing tall and proud as he receives the flag. The presence of other notable figures such as Antipope Clement VII and John Hawkwood adds depth to this historical tableau. Scarpelli's attention to detail brings this momentous occasion to life, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in Italian history. As we gaze upon this print today, it serves as a poignant reminder of Italy's rich past and its enduring spirit.
