Cabrera Carlist Day Light Episode Liberals Shooting Sun Light
EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts a pivotal moment during the First Carlist War in Spain, specifically the Episode of Burjassot in 1837. The scene unfolds outside, under the bright sunlight, with General Cabrera and his Carlist troops standing at the forefront. In the background, a group of unarmed liberals, their hands raised in surrender, are being ordered to line up for execution. The colorful and detailed engraving captures the tense atmosphere of the moment, with the sun casting long shadows on the ground and the expressions of fear and determination etched on the faces of the soldiers and civilians alike. This historic episode took place in Burjassot, a small town near Valencia, and marked a significant turning point in the Carlist Wars, which lasted from 1833 to 1840 and pitted the supporters of the pretender Carlos against the forces of the liberal government. The National Library of Spain in Madrid houses this valuable piece of history, preserving it for future generations to study and learn from.
