EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Detachment of soldiers surprised by the storm: seven soldiers will be struck" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Captured by Carrey, a skilled engraver from France, this image was featured in the renowned newspaper "Le Petit Parisien" on May 19th, 1901. The scene depicted is both awe-inspiring and harrowing. A detachment of soldiers stands united against the backdrop of an approaching storm. The atmosphere is tense as they find themselves unexpectedly caught in nature's fury. As lightning strikes menacingly across the sky, one cannot help but feel a sense of vulnerability shared by these brave men. Carrey's masterful engraving technique brings out every detail with precision and depth. The composition perfectly captures the soldiers' expressions - a mix of surprise, determination, and perhaps even fear. It serves as a reminder that even those trained for battle are not immune to the forces beyond their control. Preserved within a private collection today, this print allows us to reflect upon an era long gone while appreciating its artistic value. Stefano Bianchetti has done justice to this historical gem by ensuring it remains accessible for all to admire. As we gaze upon this striking image from over a century ago, we are reminded of the resilience and bravery exhibited by those who serve their country amidst unpredictable circumstances – an enduring testament to human strength in times of adversity.
