EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic event known as "The Fire of Moscow, 1812,1813". The image, found in the esteemed collection of Staatliche Museen in Berlin, Germany, depicts a scene filled with despair and destruction. It transports us back to a time when war ravaged the landscape and brought misery upon its people. In this powerful artwork created using pencil, ink on paper, watercolour, and gouache techniques, we witness the aftermath of Napoleon's invasion of Russia. The once majestic city of Moscow is engulfed in flames as French soldiers roam amidst the chaos. The Kremlin stands tall but vulnerable against a backdrop of smoke-filled skies. The graphic arts employed by Karl Friedrich Schinkel skillfully convey the suffering endured during this tumultuous period. This neoclassical masterpiece captures not only the physical devastation caused by war but also reflects upon its emotional toll on both sides. As we gaze at this fine art representation of history unfolding before our eyes, it serves as a poignant reminder of the atrocities committed during warfare. It symbolizes resilience and patriotism displayed by those who fought valiantly against Napoleon's forces. Let us remember this significant moment in Napoleonic Wars' history - Emperor Napoleon's ill-fated attempt to conquer Russia - through this evocative portrayal that speaks volumes about human endurance amidst unimaginable hardship.
