EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the aftermath of the Battle of Nancy, which took place on January 15, 1477. The scene depicts Charles the Bold, Duke of Burgundy, lying in the snow, defeated and lifeless, after his attempt to seize the Duchy of Lorraine was thwarted by the Swiss troops. Charles the Bold, also known as Charles the Rash or Charles the Bold, was a powerful ruler in the Netherlands during the late Middle Ages. He had long coveted the Duchy of Lorraine, which was located to the east of his territories. In the winter of 1476, Charles led an army to besiege the city of Nancy, the capital of Lorraine. The Swiss Confederacy, which included the cantons of Appenzell, Glarus, Schwyz, and Zürich, came to the defense of Lorraine. The Battle of Nancy was a turning point in the conflict between Burgundy and the Swiss Confederacy. Despite the superior numbers and weaponry of the Burgundian army, the Swiss troops were able to hold their ground and eventually drive the Burgundians back. The defeat was a humiliating one for Charles, who was known for his military prowess. The print shows Charles lying in the snow, surrounded by the victorious Swiss troops. His body is lifeless, and his armor is battered and torn. The scene is one of chaos and defeat, with soldiers and horses milling about in the background. The snow-covered landscape adds to the sense of desolation and despair. The Battle of Nancy marked the end of Burgundian expansion into the east and the beginning of the decline of Burgundian power. Charles the Bold was killed in the battle, and his body was later found and identified by his men. The event is an important moment in European history, and this print provides a vivid and dramatic representation of the aftermath of the battle.
