EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching captures the intensity and determination of the Italian Unification movement during the Insurrection of the Five Days in Milan, which took place from March 18 to 21, 1848. The scene depicts combat between Italian liberals and Austrian forces at the Ticinese Gate in the early hours of March 21. The urban landscape of Milan, with its cities and buildings in the background, underscores the significance of this pivotal moment in Italian history. The wrestling match between the Italian wrestler and the Austrian soldier symbolizes the resurgence of Italian independence and the rebelliousness of the Italian people against foreign rule. The insurrection was a key event in the Risorgimento, the Italian movement for national unification, and marked a turning point in the country's history. This etching is part of the Achille Bertarelli collection of prints, which documents important historical and cultural moments in Italian history.
