This lithograph, titled "Passage Of The French" takes us back to a significant moment in history during the Italian unification. Created around 1859 by R. M. Bryson after an exquisite drawing by Carlo Bossoli, this print captures the essence of a monumental event. The scene unfolds amidst the breathtaking Mont Cenis in Savoie, where a large group of people is seen braving the snowy mountainside. A sense of anticipation fills the air as we witness the passage of the mighty French Army through this treacherous terrain. Each figure exudes determination and resilience against nature's challenges. As our gaze wanders across this masterpiece, we can almost feel ourselves transported to that very day outdoors. The snow-covered landscape serves as both an obstacle and a symbol of unity for these soldiers marching towards their shared goal – Italian unification or Il Risorgimento. Through this lithograph, we are reminded not only of historical events but also of human strength and perseverance in pursuit of freedom and independence. It stands as a testament to the courage exhibited by those who fought for change during one of Europe's most transformative periods.
