EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, entitled "Risorgimento. Sicily Conquest. Battle of Milazzo. 17-24 July 1860," portrays a pivotal moment in Italian history. The scene depicts the Battle of Milazzo, which took place between July 17 and 24, 1860, in Sicily, then part of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. The battle marked a significant turning point in the Italian Unification process, known as the Risorgimento. At the forefront of the scene are Giuseppe Garibaldi's volunteers, proudly waving the tricolor flag of the emerging Italian Republic. Garibaldi, a key figure in the Italian Unification movement, led a group of brave volunteers, including Hungarian veterans, against the troops of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. The clash took place near Milazzo, a coastal city in north-eastern Sicily. The intricate details of this 19th-century engraving, skillfully crafted by M. Jules Duvaux, bring the intensity of the battle to life. The vibrant colors add depth and emotion to the scene, making it a captivating piece of historical art. The Battle of Milazzo was a decisive victory for Garibaldi and his forces, paving the way for the eventual unification of Italy under the House of Savoy. This engraving serves as a testament to the courage and determination of the Italian people during the Risorgimento era. It is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made to achieve the Italian Unification and the creation of a unified Italian state.
