View of Capua, from Monte St. Angelo - from a sketch by our special artist, Frank Vizetelly, 1860. Creator: Unknown.

View of Capua, from Monte St. Angelo - from a sketch by our special artist, Frank Vizetelly, 1860. 'The Sketch from which our Engraving is taken was made...shortly before the battle on the Volturno took place. In the field in the foreground is bivouacked a battalion of Garibaldians serving as supports to the advanced line thrown out by the national army. The houses burning in the middle distance had been occupied by the Garibaldians but the Neapolitans coming up in force compelled the few troops that held them to fall back. Skirmishing is going on at the extreme right, on both banks of the Volturno. Capua stands on the left bank of the Volturno, which forms so extensive a curve as to surround at least two-thirds of the town. Its fortifications, first erected in 1231 by Fuccio Florentine, were reconstructed and enlarged by Vauban on the modern system. They were remodelled and strengthened with earthworks in 1855, under the direction of a Russian officer. Capua ranks as one of the three military stations of the first class in the Neapolitan kingdom'. From "Illustrated London News", 1860.
