EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - the Flag bearer from the canton of Soleure, dating back to around 1500. The vibrant colors and intricate details of this color engraving, published in 1943 by Editions Fraumunster in Zurich, bring to life the rich heritage and heraldry of Switzerland. The flag bearer stands tall and proud, adorned in a striking uniform that represents his allegiance to the canton of Soleure. His banner billows gracefully behind him, displaying symbols that hold deep significance within Swiss culture. As an unknown soldier immortalized through this engraving, he becomes a symbol himself - embodying bravery and loyalty. This vertical print transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into an era where honor and valor were highly esteemed. It serves as a testament to the strength and unity found within Swiss communities throughout history. Now housed within a private collection belonging to Santiago Ortega, this rare artifact continues to captivate viewers with its historical importance. While we may not know the exact origins or purpose behind this flag bearer's role during his time, we can appreciate his contribution towards preserving Switzerland's unique identity. As we admire this extraordinary image today, let us remember those who came before us - their sacrifices shaping our present-day society while reminding us of our shared past.
