EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historical print, we are transported back to the Battle of Morgarten on 15 November 1315, where Duke Leopold I of Austria finds himself in a perilous situation. The image depicts the decisive defeat against the Swiss Confederacy and showcases an extraordinary act of bravery that saved the noble Duke from certain demise. Amidst the chaos and carnage of battle, a loyal companion comes to Leopold's rescue. With unwavering courage and determination, this soldier extends his hand towards his fallen leader, pulling him away from danger and shielding him from harm. Their bond is evident in their expressions; one filled with gratitude for being spared while the other radiates steadfast loyalty. The artist Anton Ziegler masterfully captures this momentous event through intricate feather drawing techniques. Each stroke brings life to every detail - from the billowing clouds of dust to the intricately designed armor worn by both men. This artwork serves as a testament not only to historical events but also to human resilience and camaraderie amidst adversity. Preserved within "Historische Memorabilian des In-und Auslandes" (Historical Souvenirs) by Anton Ziegler in 1840, this private collection offers us a glimpse into an era long gone but never forgotten. It reminds us that even in times of great conflict, acts of heroism can transcend borders and unite individuals under a common cause. This remarkable print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate history's defining moments while honoring those who fought valiantly for their beliefs. It serves as a reminder that bravery knows no bounds and that true heroes emerge when faced with insurmountable challenges.
