Cavalry Charge, 1873, is a notable work by Giovanni Fattori, an Italian artist renowned for his contributions to the Macchiaioli movement, which sought to emphasize light and color over precise outlines in reaction to the dominant styles of the mid-19th century. Born in Livorno in 1825, Fattori was a pivotal figure in Italian painting, known for his landscapes, military scenes, and rural life depictions that vibrantly captured the Italian countryside and its inhabitants with a dynamic realism.

The painting "Cavalry Charge" stands out in Fattori's oeuvre as a vivid portrayal of the chaos and fervor of battle, a theme he revisited multiple times, drawing on his experiences and observations of the Italian Wars of Independence. Created in 1873, this work is emblematic of Fattori's mature period, wherein he mastered the interplay of light and shadow through the technique of macchia, which involves the use of broad and loose brushstrokes to create an impression of the subject matter rather than detailing every feature.

Measuring 22 x 32 cm and executed in oil on panel, "Cavalry Charge" is characterized by its dynamic composition and dramatic use of color, capturing the intensity and movement of the cavalrymen in action. The painting's foreground is dominated by the figures of the charging soldiers and their horses, depicted with a sense of immediacy and urgency that conveys the tumult of battle. The background, rendered in more subdued tones, provides a stark contrast to the vibrancy of the figures and emphasizes the isolation of the human drama from the surrounding landscape.

"Cavalry Charge" is celebrated for its historical significance and artistic merit, offering insight into the Italian unification process and the broader European context of the 19th century. It reflects Fattori's deep engagement with the themes of war and patriotism, as well as his innovative approach to painting that influenced the development of modern art in Italy. Today, the work is held in a prestigious collection, serving as a testament to Fattori's legacy as a key figure in the Macchiaioli movement and a master of Italian realism.
