EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving by Frank Watkins takes us back to a significant moment in history - the French defences of Rome during the 19th century. The intricate details and skillful execution of this print transport us to a time when fortifications played a crucial role in protecting cities. The image showcases the earthworks strategically positioned before the city gates, providing an imposing sight for any potential invaders. These formidable ramparts were constructed with precision and purpose, serving as a symbol of strength and resilience. As we delve into this historical scene, our eyes are drawn to the magnificent fortress walls that surround Rome's iconic landmarks such as Laterano di San Giovanni and Porta del Popolo. The Italian flag proudly flutters atop these structures, representing both national pride and unity. Watkins' engraving captures not only the physicality of these defences but also their significance within European politics at that time. Amidst an ever-changing landscape on the continent, fortified cities like Rome stood as symbols of power and protection. This remarkable artwork serves as a testament to human ingenuity in times of conflict.
