EDITORS COMMENTS
The Cavalry Charge" is a captivating etching by the renowned Italian artist, Giovanni Fattori, created in 1889. This masterpiece is a testament to the artistic style of the Macchiaioli movement, which emerged in Italy during the late 19th century. The image portrays a dynamic scene of cavalrymen and horses charging forward on a battlefield. The etching, which is a combination of etching with drypoint and plate tone on ivory wove paper laid down on ivory wove paper chine colle, showcases the artist's exceptional skill in capturing the raw energy and intensity of the moment. The cavalrymen, dressed in their military uniforms, are depicted with determination and focus, their faces set in determined expressions as they ride towards the frontline. The horses, too, are full of life and power, their muscles taut and their eyes wide with excitement. The location of the charge is not explicitly stated, but the image evokes a sense of wartime and the chaos and intensity of battle. The soldiers and horses are arranged in a group, creating a sense of unity and camaraderie among them. The etching is a powerful conceptual work, capturing the essence of the human spirit and the courage and determination of those who serve in the military. This stunning artwork is a must-see for any art enthusiast or history buff, and can be found in the prestigious Art Institute of Chicago, where it is a cherished part of their vast collection of prints and drawings. The Cavalry Charge is a timeless piece that continues to inspire and captivate viewers, offering a glimpse into the past and the courage and determination of those who have served in war.
