EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable "Equestrian Portrait of Victor Emmanuel II of Italy" by Angelo Inganni. Painted with oil on canvas, this masterpiece resides in the Museo del Risorgimento in Brescia, Italy. The portrait depicts Victor Emmanuel II (1820-1878), who held several prestigious titles including King of Piedmont, Savoy and Sardinia from 1849 to 1861, and later became the King of Italy until his death in 1878. Fondly known as Padre della Patria (Father of the Fatherland), he played a crucial role in unifying Italy. The image captures Victor Emmanuel II majestically mounted on a horseback, exuding regality and power. His royal presence is accentuated by his distinguished uniform adorned with a bicorn hat that adds an air of elegance to his appearance. With a well-groomed mustache framing his face, he epitomizes the essence of Italian nobility. Inganni's attention to detail is evident through every brushstroke; each stroke brings life to this equestrian portrait. The composition perfectly balances light and shadow, enhancing the depth and dimensionality of both man and horse. This stunning print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate not only Inganni's artistic prowess but also pay homage to one of Italy's most influential figures. It serves as a reminder of Victor Emmanuel II's significant contributions towards creating a unified Italian nation-state during turbulent times.
