Parga fu infatti ceduta dagli inglesi (era un protettorato della corona britannica) all Impero Ottomano nel corso delle trattative per il possesso delle Isole Ionie. Gli abitanti non accettarono l idea di doversi sottoporre ai turchi: cosa nel 1819, anno in cui i turchi presero ufficialmente possesso della citta, gli abitanti abbandonarono le proprie case e migrarono verso le isole di Corfau e Cefalonia.); Ghigo Roli; Italian, out of copyright

The Refugees of Parha, 1826-31
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil on canvas painting by Francesco Hayez that depicts a poignant historical event. Inspired by Giovanni Berchet's poem "The Refugees of Parga" the artwork portrays the occupation of the Greek city of Parga by the Turks in 1819. In this powerful composition, Hayez masterfully captures the emotions and struggles faced by the inhabitants as they were forced to abandon their homes and seek refuge elsewhere. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life the anguish, fear, and determination etched on their faces. Parga was originally under British protection but was eventually ceded to the Ottoman Empire during negotiations for control over the Ionian Islands. Unwilling to submit to Turkish rule, its residents made a difficult decision in 1819: leaving everything behind and migrating to nearby islands such as Corfu and Cephalonia. Hayez's painting serves as both a visual representation of this historical event and an emotional tribute to those who endured displacement. It reminds us of humanity's resilience in times of adversity while shedding light on forgotten stories from our past. Displayed at Pinacoteca Tosio Martinengo in Brescia, Italy, "The Refugees of Parha" continues to captivate viewers with its profound narrative and artistic brilliance. This print captured by Ghigo Roli allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate Hayez's masterpiece even if they cannot visit it personally.
