EDITORS COMMENTS
This satirical broadsheet, depicting the Battle of Breitenfeld from 1631, offers a humorous take on the historic event just outside Leipzig, where the Swedish King Gustav II Adolf (known as "Gustavus Adolphus" or simply "Gustav") defeated the Catholic forces led by General Tilly. The print, created in the aftermath of the battle, shows Gustav triumphantly standing atop a fence, with his army netting Tilly's soldiers in a clever visual metaphor for the Swedish victory. The battlefield is strewn with the fallen, adding to the dramatic and chaotic scene. The Battle of Breitenfeld was a significant turning point in the Thirty Years' War, a conflict that raged across Europe from 1618 to 1648. This battle marked the first major military success for the Protestant forces against the Catholic forces, and Gustav's involvement in the war helped to solidify his reputation as a military genius and a champion of Protestantism. This satirical broadsheet serves as a visual reminder of the events of 1631, offering a unique perspective on the Battle of Breitenfeld and the larger conflict that shaped European history for decades to come. The print's intricate details and vivid colors bring the battlefield to life, transporting viewers back to a time of war, strategy, and political upheaval.
