EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and poignant print captures the unwavering heroism of Polish mothers during a tumultuous time in history. In 1832, as their country was embroiled in the Polish-Russian War, these brave women embarked on a perilous journey to protect their children. The image showcases a group of determined mothers, resolute in their mission to convoy their little ones to safety. Their faces reflect both fear and determination as they navigate through the chaos that surrounds them. The artist skillfully portrays the strength and resilience of these women who were willing to sacrifice everything for the well-being of their children. Set against the backdrop of a November night in Warsaw, this watercolour on paper evokes a sense of urgency and desperation. It serves as a reminder not only of the hardships faced by these courageous mothers but also pays tribute to all those affected by war throughout history. This artwork is an important historical document that sheds light on an often overlooked aspect of conflict – the human element. It reminds us that amidst battles and political turmoil, it is ordinary people who bear the brunt and display extraordinary acts of bravery. From its private collection origins, this anonymous masterpiece speaks volumes about humanity's capacity for love, sacrifice, and resilience even in times when hope seems distant. Its depiction resonates with viewers across generations, reminding us never to forget or underestimate the power of maternal instinct and selflessness during times of adversity.
