EDITORS COMMENTS
. This color lithograph captures a pivotal moment in history - the Victory of the Swiss over the Burgundians at the Battle of Morat on June 22,1476. Created by Jules Courvoisier, this print showcases his exceptional talent for bringing historical events to life. In this scene, we witness a fierce battle unfolding between two armies. The Swiss soldiers, mounted on horseback and clad in armor, fight valiantly against their Burgundian adversaries. The chaos and intensity are palpable as swords clash and arrows fly through the air. The setting adds another layer of drama to this artwork. The battlefield is situated near Lake Morat, with its tranquil waters serving as an eerie backdrop to this violent conflict. Some unfortunate soldiers can be seen drowning in their heavy armor amidst all the chaos. Courvoisier's attention to detail is remarkable; every figure is meticulously rendered with precision and accuracy. Through his masterful brushstrokes, he transports us back to this significant event in European history. This print was originally created as an illustration for "Notre Histoire" by G de Reynold in 1919 and has since become a valuable part of private collections worldwide. It serves as a powerful reminder of Switzerland's triumph over adversity during one of its most challenging battles - a testament to bravery and resilience that still resonates today.
