EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print depicts the pivotal moment of the Battle of Belgrade in 1717, a turning point in European history. The Austrian army, led by the brilliant military strategist Prince Eugene of Savoy (1663-1736), faced an overwhelming enemy: the Ottoman army of 180,000 men, under the command of Grand Vizier Ibrahim Pasha. The battle took place on August 12, 1717, near the city of Belgrade, then part of the Ottoman Empire. Prince Eugene, with a formidable force of 40,000 soldiers, skillfully maneuvered his troops against the larger Ottoman army. The Austrians were determined to secure the strategic Danube River crossing and prevent the Ottomans from advancing further into Europe. The battle raged for hours, with both sides suffering heavy losses. However, Prince Eugene's strategic planning and the bravery of his soldiers ultimately paid off. The Ottoman lines began to crumble, and the Austrians seized the opportunity to deliver a decisive blow. The Ottoman army, demoralized and disorganized, retreated, leaving the battlefield to the victorious Austrians. This victory marked a significant milestone in European history, as it halted the Ottoman advance into Europe and strengthened the position of the Habsburg Monarchy. The Battle of Belgrade is remembered as a testament to the courage and military prowess of Prince Eugene and the Austrian army, and as a turning point in the long-lasting struggle between the Christian and Ottoman worlds. This historical print, with its intricate details and vivid colors, transports us back to that fateful day in August 1717, allowing us to witness the grandeur and intensity of one of the most important battles in European history.
