EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of Roberto I Guiscardo and Count Ruggero entering Palermo in the 11th century. The fresco, painted by Giovanni Patricolo around 1835, adorns the walls of The Yellow Room in the Royal Apartment of Palazzo dei Normanni, Sicily. In this mural, we witness two powerful figures on horseback, surrounded by an air of authority and strength. Roberto I Guiscardo and Count Ruggero were brothers who played significant roles in shaping Sicilian history during their time. Roger I (c. 1040-1101) was a prominent ruler known for establishing the Kingdom of Sicily, while Robert Guiscard (c. 1015-1085) was a skilled military leader who conquered much of Southern Italy. The painting showcases their triumphant entrance into Palermo with grandeur and elegance. With vibrant colors and intricate details, it transports us back to a pivotal moment in Italian history. As we gaze at this remarkable artwork, we are reminded not only of these influential men but also of the rich heritage that surrounds them. This masterpiece serves as a testament to the enduring legacy left behind by these Norman conquerors. Displayed within the Palace of Normans - now recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site - this mural stands as both an artistic treasure and historical artifact that continues to captivate viewers from all walks of life.
