Burning Etching Ilustraci Ilustracion Peri Dico Periaa63 O Revolution Salamanca Universal Furniture
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative etching captures the chaotic scene of the Revolution of 1854 in Madrid, Spain, specifically the burning of the furniture from the house of the Duke of Sutherland, Marquess of Salamanca, on the streets of the capital city. The Revolution of 1854 was a significant political upheaval in Spain, sparked by the government's attempt to impose a new tax on agricultural produce. The people of Madrid rose up in protest, and this image published in "La Ilustración Periodo Universal" documents the violent aftermath. The white-clad crowd can be seen surrounding the burning furniture, their expressions a mix of anger and excitement. The smoke from the fire billows up into the sky, adding to the sense of turmoil and unrest. The etching technique used in this print captures the intricacies of the scene, from the detailed textures of the clothing and furniture to the dynamic energy of the crowd. This powerful image serves as a testament to the intensity of the Revolution of 1854 and the passion of the Spanish people during this pivotal moment in their history."
