EDITORS COMMENTS
Entry of the French into Milan, 8th June 1859, (1893) captures a momentous event in history with vibrant colors and jubilant expressions. This print by Henri Meyer, featured in Le Petit Journal on 13th June 1893, showcases the joyous scene as the French troops enter Milan. The bustling city street is filled with a diverse group of people eagerly welcoming their liberators. Men and women alike are seen waving flags and banners adorned with the iconic tricolor of France. The atmosphere is one of cheerful celebration as citizens kneel down to kiss the ground or raise their hands in pleased jubilation. Amidst this lively crowd stands an array of beautiful buildings that define Milan's urban landscape. The architecture serves as a backdrop to this historic moment, symbolizing both Italy's rich heritage and its newfound freedom. Henri Meyer's artistry skillfully portrays every detail - from the colorful attire worn by men and women to the standard bearers proudly displaying their country's flag. It is evident that this print was created during a time when color printing techniques were advancing rapidly. This image transports us back to nineteenth-century Lombardy, capturing not only a significant historical event but also showcasing Meyer's talent as an artist. As we admire this piece today, it reminds us of our shared human desire for liberation and unity.
