EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to a significant moment in history - "The War in Egypt: Maltese and Italian Fugitives from Cairo, Near Ismailia". The image transports us to the year 1882, where we witness a group of individuals seeking refuge on a boat amidst the chaos of war. The composition is an engraved image that showcases the illustrative technique of engravement, popular during the Victorian era. Its retro-styled appearance adds an air of nostalgia and vintage charm to this historical snapshot. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable, capturing both the physical features and emotions etched onto each face. As we delve into its context, we learn about the plight faced by these Maltese and Italian fugitives who fled Cairo due to ongoing conflicts. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder of their struggle for survival and their desperate journey towards safety. Through this piece, Arkheia's artistic vision allows us to connect with our past while appreciating the skillful craftsmanship involved in creating such intricate prints. It invites contemplation on how art can serve as a powerful medium for preserving history and shedding light on forgotten narratives. Without mentioning any commercial use or affiliations with companies, let us appreciate this print solely for its ability to transport us through time and evoke emotions tied closely with human resilience amidst adversity.
