EDITORS COMMENTS
Customs of the Three Quadrilles: A Glimpse into Ottoman Cavalrymen's Expedition in 1571". This print showcases a remarkable painting by Francesco Ceruti, which forms part of the prestigious Historic Carousel collection dated April 5th, 1864. The artwork serves as a poignant commemoration of an extraordinary expedition undertaken by a group of courageous cavalrymen during the time of the mighty Ottoman Empire in 1571. Stepping back into history, this mesmerizing piece transports us to Italy during the Renaissance period. It depicts three quadrilles, each adorned with their distinctive costumes and headdresses - a vibrant tapestry that reflects both civilian and military fashion trends at that time. The attention to detail is exquisite; every accessory meticulously captured, from knights' armor to religious headpieces. The central figure commands attention—a portrait capturing the essence of a valiant male warrior representing Christian faith amidst this historical event. Surrounding him are fellow members of his cavalry unit, united in purpose and bravery as they embark on their noble mission. Francesco Ceruti's artistic prowess shines through in this masterpiece from the nineteenth century. His skillful brushstrokes breathe life into these equestrian mammals—powerful horses that symbolize strength and resilience alongside their riders. As we delve deeper into this photograph's rich narrative, we are reminded not only of its artistic significance but also its historical importance. It offers us a glimpse into Europe's past during both the first and second millenniums AD—an era marked by cultural exchange and significant events such as expeditions against empires like that of Ottomans. Balbiano has expertly captured this timeless artwork from Alinari without commercial intent or affiliation with any company. Through his lens, he allows us to appreciate Ceruti's mastery while immersing ourselves in an enchanting moment frozen forever within this stunning print.
