Siglo XIX · Argentina
Colección: Carlos Morel
This vivid lithograph, a work by the pioneering Argentine artist Carlos Morel, depicts a squadron of the Federalist Cuirassier Cavalry in full action, traversing rugged terrain. The dynamic composition and the use of vibrant colors, especially the distinctive red of the Federalists, capture the martial spirit and political identity of the 19th-century Argentine Civil Wars. The work is a visual testament to the Rosas era, merging romanticism in the portrayal of heroes with a detailed illustrative technique that documents the uniforms and cavalry of the period.
