EDITORS COMMENTS
In this hand-colored copperplate engraving by Verico from Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World," published in Florence in 1837, we find ourselves transported back to medieval Switzerland, where the local peasants present Governor Arnold von Winkelried, Balio di Landenberg, with customary gifts in a heartfelt gesture of respect and loyalty. The scene is set against a picturesque backdrop of a quaint Swiss village, with the Governor, dressed in the regal attire of the time, standing proudly amidst his subjects. He is surrounded by peasants offering him chickens, goats, and baskets of wool as tokens of their admiration and devotion. This traditional practice underscores the strong bond between the Governor and his people, reflecting the communal spirit that was integral to medieval society. The Governor, Arnold von Winkelried, was a renowned Swiss hero who played a pivotal role in the Battle of Sempach in 1386. Known for his bravery and leadership, he is remembered for his selfless act of throwing himself in front of the Austrian pikes to protect his fellow soldiers, thereby turning the tide of the battle in favor of the Swiss Confederation. This historical illustration, which captures the essence of medieval Switzerland, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage and the deep-rooted traditions that continue to inspire and fascinate us today. The intricate details of the Governor's attire, the authentic portrayal of the peasants, and the idyllic setting all contribute to the captivating allure of this beautiful work of art.
