EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1586, during the reign of King Henry III. The subject of this photograph is a Swiss Guard, a member of the prestigious Kings Swiss Guard. Standing tall and proud, he exudes an aura of strength and loyalty. Dressed in his military uniform, every detail has been meticulously captured by the anonymous artist. From his engraved lance held firmly in hand to his distinctive arm hat adorned with a feather, this guard embodies the essence of a true warrior. His beard adds an air of wisdom and experience while his belt holds all necessary tools for battle. The intricate details on his clothing showcase both fashion and functionality. A sabre hangs gracefully from his side as a symbol of power and protection. Notably, he wears a strawberry collerette around his neck - an emblem associated with French royalty. This print offers us a glimpse into history; it allows us to appreciate not only the artistry behind this engraving but also provides insight into the military culture during that era. Preserved within private collections over centuries, it serves as a testament to our fascination with historical figures who dedicated their lives to serving their kings and kingdoms. Photographed by ePhoto Josse, this image is now out of copyright restrictions ensuring its availability for generations to come.
