EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of the siege and capture of Valencia by the French army under the orders of Marechal of Empire Count Suchet on 9 July 1812. Entitled "Entree du marechal Louis Gabriel Suchet A Valencia in 1812" this engraving is a part of Adolphe Thiers' renowned work, "Histoire de l empire suite A l histoire du consulate" published in 1879. The image showcases the intense military action with soldiers on horseback, charging forward to conquer the city. The Marechal himself can be seen at the forefront, leading his troops with determination and strategic prowess. The scene is filled with tension as smoke billows from cannon fire and chaos ensues. The black and white composition adds a sense of timelessness to this historical event, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in an era long gone. It serves as a powerful reminder of the human cost and sacrifices made during times of war. Stefano Bianchetti's skillful execution brings life to every detail - from each soldier's uniform to their horses' majestic presence. This print not only appeals to history enthusiasts but also highlights Bianchetti's talent as an artist. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time, witnessing a significant chapter in Spanish history unfold before our eyes. It serves as a testament to both the triumphs and tragedies that shaped nations during Napoleon's reign and leaves us contemplating the enduring impact of warfare throughout history.
