EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous scene from history, showcasing the legendary Attila the Hun engaged in an intense discussion with one of his warriors. The image is derived from a 15th-century manuscript called "The War of Attila" by Nicola da Casola, created by the Franco-Italian School. In this mesmerizing artwork found at Biblioteca Estense in Modena, Italy, we witness Attila's commanding presence as he converses with his loyal soldier. Both figures are adorned in regal attire and wear crowns that symbolize their power and authority. The manuscript itself portrays Attila as the king of the Huns during his reign from c. 406 to 453. The composition exudes an air of mystery and intrigue, highlighting elements such as horses and horsemen that were integral to Attila's military prowess. The poem-like quality of this visual narrative adds depth to our understanding of this historical figure's life and conquests. As we delve into this piece, it becomes evident that it represents more than just a depiction of war; it encapsulates themes like invasion, paganism, and even wildlife symbolism through its portrayal of animals such as horses – both farm animals and majestic creatures representing untamed strength. Through Bridgeman Images' reproduction techniques, viewers can now appreciate every intricate detail captured on vellum by Franco-Italian artists centuries ago. This print allows us to immerse ourselves in history while marveling at the artistic brilliance behind
