EDITORS COMMENTS
In the sweltering summer of 1543, the picturesque city of Nice, then a part of the Savoy domain in present-day France, found itself under siege by the formidable Ottoman Turkish army. The invaders, led by the formidable admiral Khair-ed-Din Barbarossa, had set their sights on expanding their Mediterranean territories, and Nice, with its strategic location and rich resources, was an irresistible target. Amidst the chaos and carnage, a remarkable figure emerged from the crowd. Catherine Segurane, a humble laundress, seized the moment of crisis and took charge. With unwavering courage and determination, she grabbed a flag in one hand and a sword in the other. The image captured in this print depicts Catherine, her face set with grit and resolve, leading the city's desperate defence against the relentless Turkish onslaught. The people of Nice, inspired by her bravery, rallied behind her, their spirits lifted by the sight of this ordinary woman turning into an extraordinary heroine. The battle raged on for days, with the defenders holding out against the seemingly insurmountable odds. The Turks, taken aback by the tenacity of the Savoyard forces, eventually retreated, leaving Nice to breathe a collective sigh of relief. Catherine Segurane's heroic act became the stuff of legend, a testament to the indomitable human spirit that refuses to yield even in the face of adversity. Her story serves as a reminder that, in times of crisis, anyone can rise to the occasion and make a difference. This evocative print, with its vivid depiction of the scene, transports us back to that fateful summer in 1543, allowing us to bear witness to an extraordinary moment in history.
