Framed Print of Kalergi, the Greek patriot, 1844. Creator: Unknown
Kalergi, the Greek patriot, 1844. Portrait of Greek soldier and politician Dimitrios Kallergis, one of the most important protagonists of the 3 September 1843 Revolution. Kalergi...who has taken so distinguished a position in the recent revolution in Greece...was bom in Candia, and is now about 38 years of age. Throughout the war of independence, he distinguished himself by his remarkable bravery. By a coup de main he succeeded in taking Karabusa in 1825, with a few men; and at the battle fought between the Greeks and Turks in the plain of Athens in 1827, having been severely wounded, he was made a prisoner. The bravest of the Cretans, among whom was his brother Emanuel, were slain around him. By the Seraskiers orders he was brought into his presence on a mans back; and after asking him some questions, he ordered him to be decapitated - a ceremony that had been already performed on several hundreds. The Albanian Bey, however, who had taken him prisoner, claimed him as his own; and the commotion this individual raised on seeing himself about to be deprived of the chance of making a profit out of his prisoner was so great, that the Seraskier at last consented to spare his life, and contented himself with slitting off one of his ears to send to Constantinople.
