EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense atmosphere of the Fifth Italian War, specifically the night of Marignan in Italy, between 13 and 14 September 1515. Illustrated by Albert de Robida in 1909, this piece is part of a private collection. The image showcases a battlefield engulfed in darkness, with French troops engaged in combat against their Italian adversaries. The scene is filled with historical significance as it depicts a crucial moment during the war. Francis I, King of France from 1494 to 1547 and also known as Francis the First, led his army to victory against Lombardy and Italy. This battle was part of larger conflicts known as the Habsburg-Valois Wars or Great Wars of Italy. The illustration highlights various elements essential to warfare during that era: riders on horseback charging into confrontation, mercenaries fighting alongside soldiers from different European nations such as Switzerland, and military strategies employed by both sides. Robida's attention to detail brings this historic event to life; every soldier's expression portrays determination and valor amidst chaos. The composition emphasizes not only the intensity but also the scale of this conflict. This artwork serves as a reminder of an important chapter in European history when political powers clashed over territorial control. It stands as a testament to human resilience and strategic prowess while providing viewers with a glimpse into one specific moment within this tumultuous period.
