The Last Attack on Rome - A Glimpse into the First Italian War of Independence
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a pivotal moment in history, depicting "The Last Attack on Rome by the French" during the 19th century. The engraving, created by an English School artist, showcases a scene filled with chaos and tension. In this image, we witness the city of Rome under siege as French troops lead a fierce assault against Italian defenders. The Church of San Pietro stands stoically amidst the turmoil, serving as a poignant symbol of faith amid warfare. Barricades line the streets while bags are strewn about haphazardly, evidence of desperate resistance from Italian forces. Bayonetted soldiers can be seen engaging in close combat, highlighting the brutality and intensity of this final confrontation. As smoke billows from guns fired by both sides, engineers are shown throwing themselves into action to defend their positions. Meanwhile, Garibaldi's presence looms large as he rallies his compatriots to stand strong against their aggressors. The image also offers glimpses of iconic landmarks such as Acqua Paolo and Fonta Montorio Villa Savarelli - reminders that this battle took place within Italy's cherished capital city. This print serves not only as a historical document but also as a testament to human resilience and determination in times of conflict. It allows us to reflect upon the sacrifices made by both Italians and Frenchmen during this tumultuous period in European history.
